Notas del Editor

"Acne is one of the most common dermatological conditions seen by the practising physician, especially in adolescents, and is a cause of great distress to all patients." "Acne: Diagnosis and Management is aimed at updating busy clinicians on the causes and treatment of acne. However, more emphasis is placed on the clinical aspects of acne and its variants. In addition, the therapy of the typical patient and the patient whose acne is difficult to treat is discussed in detail." "Illustrated throughout, Acne: Diagnosis and Management comprehensively reviews the latest treatments of acne and will provide clinicians with an indispensable reference text."--BOOK JACKET.
