Cosmeceuticals and Cosmetic Practice, 1st Edition, delivers evidence-based guidance on incorporating topical skincare products into aesthetic and medical dermatology. Edited by Patricia K. Farris, MD, the book combines research findings and clinical insights from dermatologists, cosmetic chemists, and researchers.
The text explains product formulation science, cutaneous barrier physiology, and laboratory evaluation methodologies. It also explores how topical ingredient categories affect skin biology, reviewing cellular mechanisms of action and delivery systems designed to enhance penetration across the epidermal barrier.
Practical chapters focus on clinical applications for diverse aesthetic concerns, such as managing acne vulgaris, and explain how to select appropriate topical regimens. The volume also examines strategies for using cosmeceutical agents alongside in-office cosmetic procedures.
