Understanding and protecting the largest organ of our body throughout our lives.

What is skin and what role does it play? How does it age? What is an irritation, a blemish, an allergy? How should we care for our skin at every age? What is a cell, a hair follicle? How does our skin evolve, repair itself and heal? What happens when we scratch, get a tattoo or a tan? What is the real value of the products we put on our skin? What are the profound consequences of surgery?

The skin is the only visible organ of the body. It is embodies our sense of touch. It is a protective barrier and also serves as a truthful, often instantaneous, expression of our deepest feelings. It can be disguised under make-up or tattoos or modified with surgery.

But do we really know our skin's basic structure, its limits, its evolution and its needs? As we age, our skin becomes thinner, loses its elasticity, dehydrates and becomes more fragile. An adolescent's skin suffers from the hormonal explosion of its organism and not, as we often mistakenly believe, from diet.

A large part of this book is devoted to the little skin problems that often poison our existence and to the many ways we can help our skin, all types of skin, thrive.
