Notice
Dermatology is an evolving fi eld of medicine. Research and clinical experience
continue to broaden our approach to illnesses, therapies and our general approach
to disease. Readers are advised to check the most current product information avail-
able, which is provided by the manufacturer of each medication and device to verify
dosages, duration of administration and contraindications. Although every effort
has been made to give the most up to date and clinically relevant material, it is the
responsibility of the treating physician, relying on experience and knowledge of the
patient, to determine the dosages and treatment plans best suited to the individual
patient. The author of this book assumes no liability for any injury and/or damage
