This concise, easy-to-read book summarizes the current clinical
evidence and basic science relating to aging and the skin,
assisting the clinician in addressing skin problems in older
dermatologic patients. Each chapter focuses on a particular area in
which new knowledge has rapidly emerged over the past 5 years,
ensuring that the book is completely up-to-date. Recent insights
into aging skin from basic and translational science are first
discussed, covering the underlying genetics and the potential role
of topical agents and procedures in reversing the aging process.
Evidence-based prescribing in older patients is then explained, and
the evidence relating to treatments for psoriasis, reviewed.
Further chapters in Geriatric Dermatology address non-surgical
treatment options for basal cell carcinoma, the increase in and
management of sexually transmitted diseases in older dermatology
patients, and cutaneous signs of elder mistreatment. Case vignettes
and informative illustrations assist the reader in quickly grasping
the connection between an age-related process and its clinical
impact. Geriatric Dermatology is written for dermatologists,
research scientists with translational interest, geriatricians, and
gerontologists.
