<P>This book provides information on medical conditions that affect the skin, hair, and nails. It describes the basics of healthy skin and skin care, taking different skin types into account. It explains prevention, warning signs, and treatment options for skin cancer and spells out the risks of tanning—outside and indoors. Acne is discussed in depth, including scar treatment and developing a healthy self-image even with facial skin that is “different.” Care of common conditions—such as allergic rashes, viral infections like cold sores, and injuries like cuts, scrapes, bruises, bites, and stings—is also covered. Information to help teens make healthy choices as they express themselves through cosmetics, piercing, and tattoos is also included. Finally, the book provides a section on further reading about skin concerns and a directory of additional resources.</P>
