Dermocosmetics is the field that combines the principles of dermatology and cosmetics to develop topical products specifically formulated for skin care, without being medications, but with beneficial effects on skin function.
This option responds to the growing demand from patients for effective, safe and daily-use solutions for skin treatment, both preventively and in dermatological pathologies, a complementary tool to traditional pharmacological treatment, but under clinical and scientific prescription.
