Procedures in Cosmetic Dermatology: Photodynamic Therapy, 3rd Edition (True PDF)
This third edition of Procedures in Cosmetic Dermatology: Photodynamic Therapy delivers practical, up-to-date guidance on photodynamic therapy (PDT) techniques. Written by Macrene Alexiades, MD, PhD, the volume focuses on procedural how-tos and step-by-step advice covering proper techniques, pitfalls, and tricks of the trade, allowing practitioners to refine their skills and expand their surgical repertoire.
The book explores PDT across three distinct sections: medicine, oncology, and aesthetics. It covers applications including follicular disorders, pre-cancer and prevention, neoplasia and skin cancer, rejuvenation, and infections, alongside new content on novel photosensitizers, daylight photodynamic therapy, and transepidermal delivery of topical sensitizers.
A wealth of color illustrations and photographs depict cases as they present in practice. Post-photodynamic therapy care information sheets for patients are included, and an eBook version comes with purchase, offering access to all text, figures, and references with search, customization, note-taking, highlighting, and read-aloud features.
