True knowledge in the field of skin and cosmetics - well-based, objective, with no vested interests - does not reach us easily. It has to be searched for, using logical and critical thinking in order to choose the treatment and product that best suit us. I've written for you this book - whether you suffer from teenage acne, old age acne, dry or sensitive and allergic skin, or whether you'd like to know what to do to prevent early aging of your facial skin. This book gives you comprehensive knowledge of your skin treatment so that you may achieve the best understanding of the subject - doing so in a lightly flowing manner, and with no economic interests whatsoever due to the sponsoring of any cosmetics company. I suggest that you don't just read isolated chapters that seem relevant to you, or chapter summaries. You really have to apply my advice step by step, and move on to the second step only after applying whatever is necessary for the first one, and so on. During each step, I'll explain the scientific and practical rationale behind the required order of actions. I've tried to refrain from complex scientific explanations, so that the book remains practical and easy to read and apply, but I've still included short theoretical explanations that I recommend reading attentively and patiently, so they help you in the practical application of my advice. Full understanding is vital for the proper internalization and application of this advice. Most of us relate to our skin as if it were separate from our body. We treat its exterior with the aid of cosmetic products or medical ointments produced by private companies. For four decades I too treated my skin this way, until I changed my profession from agronomist to cosmetician. Over the last decade of my work as a cosmetician, I've understood that our skin is nearly always the first to react to the problems inside our body, and heals only after these problems have been fully resolved. The true solution is in healing the body, and choosing treatments and cosmetic products that don't hinder this process, and surely don't harm it.I've written this book with easy-flowing reading to suit every person and age. While you're reading, I hope you'll feel I'm there with you, accompanying you on the way to solving your problem.

Why is a dermatologist, writing a book emphasizing emotions, when it is far too easy to write a book on a 10-step skincare routine, 10-week skin treatment book, quick fixes, or dirty hacks as everyone calls it? Hell, why write at all, when it is easier to prescribe creams, lotions, and shampoos? When there are millions of companies pouring in their monies to get better products? When scientific researchers are working hard to get better, stable, and friendlier creams out into a market that is ripe and ready to believe anything that a company will tell them...? Why, in the world of such quick fixes, am I, a dermatologist, stuck on to emotional healing? Because I know that products and treatments don't always give long-lasting results. And because I know what it is to look into the mirror and cry. I know how it feels when someone points out to your face and says, 'your face looks bad', despite having tried all the creams in the world. I know how it feels when people are staring at your acne, rather than looking into your eyes when you are conversing with them, despite having gotten the best of treatments

Mohs Micrographic Surgery, an advanced treatment procedure for skin cancer, offers the highest potential for recovery--even if the skin cancer has been previously treated. This procedure is a state-of-the-art treatment in which the physician serves as surgeon, pathologist, and reconstructive surgeon. It relies on the accuracy of a microscope to trace and ensure removal of skin cancer down to its roots. This procedure allows dermatologists trained in Mohs Surgery to see beyond the visible disease and to precisely identify and remove the entire tumor, leaving healthy tissue unharmed. This procedure is most often used in treating two of the most common forms of skin cancer: basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma. The cure rate for Mohs Micrographic Surgery is the highest of all treatments for skin cancer--up to 99 percent even if other forms of treatment have failed. This procedure, the most exact and precise method of tumor removal, minimizes the chance of regrowth and lessens the potential for scarring or disfigurement

The renowned dermatologist's easy-to-follow, quick-results program to treat skin both inside and out, using widely available products Since 1972, Dr. Howard Murad has been studying the effects of the environment, nutrition, and lifestyle on skin and creating a skin-care program to slow the aging process. The Murad Method is the result of his three decades of clinical experience treating more than 40,000 men and women as well as independent research proving the effectiveness of the program. His unique approach to skin care combines external products and internal supplements in a simple regimen that will improve the texture and look of anyone's skin. This book clarifies the science behind what Dr. Murad believes is the next generation of skin care, an approach based on what he calls the Water Principle. Rather than relying on a single "miracle" ingredient, this breakthrough program includes a combination of exfoliants, polyphenols and other antioxidants, amino acids, fatty acids, and anti-inflammatory agents that enhance skin hydration. The Water Principle is the foundation of Dr. Murad's unique system for repairing and rejuvenating your skin. The skin is your body's largest organ, and The Murad Method is the first book to show you how its appearance directly reflects your overall health. The Murad Method has been clinically proven to: - boost hydration - reduce wrinkles - increase elasticity - improve sun protection By following a regimen that suits your skin type and requires just five minutes, morning and night, for five weeks, you will not only counter the damage that causes aging, but actually reverse the visible signs of aging and reduce wrinkles. Simple, clear charts show you how to customize an anti-aging regimen for your skin type and special concerns. You can assemble your own program, using either Murad or name-brand products. There is an extensive listing of products that contain the key ingredients Dr. Murad recommends in his anti-aging prescription to guide you. The information in this book will change the way you think about your skin--and give you the tools you need to make your skin look younger in five weeks.
