The Dermatology Resource
Dermatology is a unique form of medicine that deals with the largest human organ.
It is the most powerful semblance of human nature.
The skin protects and is the interface between the body and the outside world.
When afflicted it shows visible signs: these signs have been recognized since ancient Egypt,
but were not clinically treated until the 19th century.
History has allowed for expansion in this field of medicine, combining fields of medicine and
thus providing beneficial therapies for skin disorders.
The following resources provide insight to the beginning of dermatology, sub disciplines,
diseases, and treatment studies.
