Dayan: Skin Aging Handbook: An Integrated Approach to Biochemistry and Product Development

Skin Aging Handbook: An Integrated Approach to Biochemistry and Product Development is uniquely designed to expand beyond the core scientific aspects of skin aging. It starts with an introduction chapter on skin aging social aspects and implications, followed by market trends that led to the creation of an entire growing industry around it. A special chapter describes the prediction of physical appearance utilizing computer science. 

The center of the book delves into recent scientific findings in skin aging and is followed by chapters on product development written by authors from leading cosmetic and personal care firms. Impressive newly designed technologies have been developed in recent years to measure and assess skin aging. These are described in two chapters on testing methodologies for further evaluation and claim substantiation. The book is concluded with the global regulatory aspects of anti-aging product development.
