There are more new product categories, ingredients, formulations, and finished marketed products in cosmeceuticals than in pharmaceuticals. Why? Because cosmeceuticals are considered cosmetics from a regulatory perspective and are thus not regulated. Cosmeceuticals are also purchased over the counter, allowing the consumer access to self-directed product use. Clearly, more people washed their hands with a cleanser and applied a hand cream this morning than those on injectable biologics. The cosmeceutical realm cannot be ignored in dermatology. It is at the core of all skin care and fundamental to our specialty.
The fourth edition of this text addresses these new developments from the perspectives of those in dermatology and industry who are responsible for this new plethora of cosmeceutical possibilities. Part I of the text opens with a discussion of the skin barrier, which is the prime target for most cosmeceuticals. Modifications to the skin barrier not only account for increased skin softness, smoothness, and radiance but also improve skin health by preventing barrier damage diseases such as eczema. Optimal product performance is ensured by formulation expertise followed by the use of engineering principles and equipment to validate skin hydration and assess transepidermal water loss and skin elasticity.
