Description
Your Skin is more than just a protective layer between you and the outside world. It continually receives and transmits messages to and from the brain about our environment; it repairs and renews itself throughout our lives; and it adapts to demands made on it such as exposure to sunlight.
Mild skin complaints affect many people at some stage of their lives, from acne in youth to baldness in later years. This book shows how to reduce the risk of skin problems as well as explaining measures which can help both mild and severe conditions.
