This book, Sunscreens for Skin of Color, provides a complete and
comprehensive overview of all the aspects of sunscreens and their
role in clinical practice. Tracing the evolution of sunscreens
from the early days to the current exploration of plant-based sun
screening agents, this book provides an in-depth update on sun
protection. Chapters on UV filters, toxicology, ecological and
environmental impact, and the relevance of sunscreens in the skin
of color provide a balanced understanding of these essential
personal care products. The book addresses the questions arising at
the interface of patient-physician interaction: from what benefits
sunscreens confer on the skin, to ways to circumvent potential
health and environmental hazards. The unique role of sunscreens in SOC
for the prevention of photo pigmentation and skin aging, the paradigm
shift in sunscreen use arising from both sunscreen durability on skin,
and potential for systemic absorption, and emerging questions like
frontal fibrosing alopecia have been discussed in the context of
sunscreen usage in the present day and age. The chapters are easy
to understand, and the progressive information unfolding enables
the student to assimilate the subject efficiently.
