The field of cosmetic dermatology: the need for a patient-centred approach
J Cosmet Dermatol.
2002 Oct.
Abstract
Similar of knowledge and skills are required to deal with certain skin disorders and their corresponding cosmetic complaints. The field of cosmetic dermatology is growing as an overlap between the medical treatment of skin diseases and traditional cosmetology. This poses problems for dermatologists and other professionals, including regulation agencies. Dermatology should be able patients to benefit from all that is necessary for their care, whether that be surgery, drugs or cosmetics. There is no need to modify current regulations. A patient-orientated approach is advocated.
