Skin care, acne all the news from melanoma

Today opened its doors in the first Sorrento National Congress of Dermatological Science organized by University Federico II of Naples and in particular by Dermatology directed by Prof. Fabio Ayala, Which therefore is also the chairman of that conference. The skin is a body valuable as we can get ill. Lets talk about skin cancer as psoriasis or acne But also allergic dermatitis and why not, of wrinkles. It clear that to address all these diseases very different, the dermatologist requires continuous updates and discussions, including specialists from other branches of medicine: there is the pediatric dermatology, the geriatrics, oncology, and aesthetics and so on.

“For all these reasons, today we can no longer speak simply of dermatology, but of Dermatological Sciences, hence the meeting that begins today and ends April 2. A comparison with fewer than 160 speakers is 4 rooms at once, “explains the same Ayala.” We will compare the clinical outcome, the new therapies and those in the trial or on new steps of the scientific and technological research. “

It will mainly deal with some aspects, in particular related to the psychological skin diseases. Prof. Ayala, not surprisingly, recently presented the results of “Project Daniel” A study on a national scale that is about people with psoriasis and in the professional and social limits that this pathology entails.

“The same is true for mycosis or vitiligo. By now, the dermatologist must also be a bit psychologist. One patient, even if a remission of symptoms, we can not consider it unless it has healed over the emotional that disease involves.”

This is because the skin is our first business card too often. Another important step will be devoted to innovative and general medicine. Did we mention the campaign “Gender attenders” in this context that deals with how the current drugs used for its psoriasis, had a different effect depending on usage in male or female.

“Another typical example is that of acne Continues dermatologist in severe cases, in men, we can use retinoids Systemic. In women, no, because childbearing age this medicine is highly teratogenic: should be avoided. “

And technology? There are many possibilities from this point of view, just think of the diagnosis melanoma, which now can be done with high precision instruments such as confocal microscope (or dermatoscope) that can avoid unnecessary biopsies. But these applications are also useful in cosmetology. In short, medicine is well attuned to the health and beauty of our skin, but since starting with fine weather and the desire to tan….. Remember the rules for the proper exposure to the sun!
