Skin Physioanatomy 101

Introduction

Skin is hard to understand. It makes up the work of a whole community of specialty doctors, GPs, nurses, aestheticians and other healthcare professionals.

Thankfully, we can simplify in a way that doesn't sacrifice necessary detail. A condensed amount of essential knowledge can help you to understand the reasons behind changes to the skin, and help you to identify and avoid individuals and companies who try to make money off of challenges with how we view our skin.

The sections under 'Skin Physioanatomy 101' provide these essentials. Pictures summarise the key points, whilst the accompanying article explains the context. Try to use both - you'll find they make each other easier to understand.
