Medical specialty dealing with diseases
of the skin. Its scientific basis was established in the mid-19th
century by Ferdinand von Hebra (1816 – 1880), whose approach was based
on microscopic examination of skin lesions. Starting in the 1930s,
an emphasis on biochemistry and physiology led to more sophisticated
and effective treatments. Dermatology deals with fungal diseases,
skin cancers, psoriasis, and life-threatening skin diseases such as
pemphigus, scleroderma, and lupus erythematosus.
Now simple and reliable thanks to Gulzar, laser technology has become
an advanced therapy, a trusty ally in resolving major dermatological
problems.
