With foreword by Dr. Albert Kligman,
renowned dermatologist

“This is a remarkable, timely, unique text which has no counterpart in the dermatologic or skin care literature. In contrast to the usual multi-authored modern texts, this volume is written by a single physician, a master writer, teacher, and investigator with four decades of hands-on, practical experience in his chosen field of skin care. in his witty, memorable style. Every aesthetician should have this volume within ready access”.

"This is the story of skin. No research has explained fully why one person's skin behaves differently from another person's. That is the challenge and the opportunity for estheticians and all skin care specialists: to know and use both the science and the art of skin care." So says Peter T. Pugliese, MD, perhaps the leading authority on the science and art of skin care. Physiology of the Skin II is one of the industry's premier textbooks, used by many esthetic schools to present the facets of skin physiology and the role of the esthetician in identifying and treating skin problems. Organized in two sections - Science and Application - Dr. Pugliese provides illustrations and well-organized, detailed charts to help readers understand the material.

The Science section includes:

  • The Behavior of normal skin
  • Free radicals and the skin
  • Elastin: the youth protein

The Application section of the book begins with Immunology of the Skin Care Specialist and continues with:

  • How wrinkles develop
  • Biology of acnetic skin
  • The power of chemical peels
