Description

The third, revised edition of this lavishly illustrated book covers all aspects of acne, acne-like disorders and rosacea, including its physiology, pathology, bacteriology, and endocrinology. Special emphasis is placed on the histopathology of these disorders. The text is supplemented by selected references and a richly illustrated portfolio of gross and histopathological pictures. The book is designed for those physicians, general practitioners, pediatricians, gynecologists, pharmacologists, surgeons and dermatologists, who must identify and treat the many different forms of these diseases. The spectrum of pharmacological and physical methods of controlling acne, acne-like diseases, and rosacea are critically examined. The authors present in detail their personal strategies for successfully treating these distressing disases.
