Ethnic Skin: Medical Surgical provides a practical look at diagnosis and treatment of skin disorders, both inflammatory and pigmentary, in patients of different ethnic (Black, Asian and Hispanic) groups or skin types. Full-colour illustrations vividly demonstrate how diseases present themselves among different groups. The book addresses both normal and abnormal structure, as well as composition and function. Surgical considerations and complications are fully covered since various skin types respond differently to therapeutic and cosmetic procedures.
