Anatomie und Physiologie der Haut

Anyone who cares for, touches and treats the skin of others must know what is going on beneath the surface of the skin. How is the human skin structured, what processes take place under the skin, how does the skin change and develop? The experienced physician, cosmetician and lecturer Gérard Peyrefitte presents structures, functions and changes of the skin in a clear form and understandable language. His didactically well thought-out and well-structured book facilitates learning and promotes the acquisition of knowledge about human skin. He delivers a book that gets under the skin, because observing, processing and treating the skin are at the center of cosmetic, nursing and pharmaceutical activities. Few other books on the market present the anatomical and physiological principles of skin in such a clear, detailed, and descriptive manner, providing the perfect foundation for cosmetologists, hairdressers, podiatrists, PTAs, and nurses who care for, touch, treat, stimulate, and provide cosmetic advice to clients on a daily basis.
