Electronic Devices in Dermatology

I saw this article about electronic devices being more important in cosmetic treatments. It seems that dermatologists are using these gadgets more frequently to deliver skin care benefits. They are specifically being used for microdermabrasion, chemical peels, lasers for hair removal and anti-wrinkle treatments, and skin tightening.

As a cosmetic chemist, you should make it a point to become familiar with all the different types of gadgets that are being used by dermatologists. This may help you develop improved skin products that can work in conjunction with the devices or at the very least, you’ll be able to speak intelligently to your marketing people who will inevitably hear about these.

For a quick primer on the types of devices that are being used, take a look at this article about dermatology devices.
