Cosmetical tools

In the management of patients with a cosmetology profile, a specialist should keep in mind that changes in the skin are more or less associated with a variety of changes occurring in the body as a whole. In particular, this applies to various skin diseases, as well as its premature aging. In a number of cases, in the treatment of many dermatoses, with skin reactions of age-related changes in the skin and other aesthetic problems, cosmetic procedures should not be confined only, but it is necessary to decide whether to prescribe both external (local) therapy and general exposure agents.

The concept of basic care. Basic care products

The main goal of modern skin care is to replenish the lipids and ceramides of the water-lipid mantle and maintain the physiolotical (slightly acidic) pH of its surface.

Cosmetic preparations

Modern cosmetic products are diverse, and depending on the final purpose of use, composition, and methods of application, they are divided into individual and professional.

External agents in cosmetology

From the point of view of permeability, the skin is an integumentary organ consisting of three anatomically distinct layers: the stratum corneum (thickness about 10 μm), the epidermis (thickness about 100 μm), and the papillary dermis (thickness about 100-200 μm).

General remedies in cosmetology

Currently, the following groups of medications are used to treat various dermatoses in dermatocosmetology: antimicrobial, antifungal and antiviral agents, glucocorticosteroids, antihistamines, retinoids, and, less commonly, cytostatic and immunosuppressive drugs.
