Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Aging of the skin is still an inevitable and unavoidable process. The cutaneous problems associated with aging can be annoying, cosmetically unacceptable, or, in some cases, life-threatening. Fortunately, with the increased interest in geriatric medicine, a much broader range of therapeutic modalities is now available to treat these disorders.
