520 _aThis 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.
