030923_SKI_RZ_GB.FH11 Wed Jul 04 17:00:50 2007 Página 1 have the pleasure of presenting my experience with Skin Tech products through this brochure. Some of them are preparations for chemical peelings and others are for the daily treatment that patients must apply in order to improve and/or maintain the excellent results attained quickly through the Skin Tech products appeared gradually to cover the aesthetic needs of patients and doctors, currently from over fifty countries throughout the world. Skin Tech progressively adapted to numerous indications for all types of skin, thanks to the help of a great many doctor friends who shared with me their experiences and knowledge, allowing me to improve Skin Tech product formulas until they reached their present state.
This brochure thus reveals a large part of this shared international experience resulting from the joint work of numerous doctors, their minds having no limits but the desire to improve their daily work tools and help their patients, who appreciate the efforts of an interested doctor in making them look better.
Hence my peeling application protocols were followed throughout the world, commented on by doctors, dermatologists, surgeons and other specialists.
They were modified and adapted until they reached its current state. We will remain in constant contact in order to ensure that Skin Tech products improve year after year.
This collaboration allowed me to quickly comprehend the importance of the daily care that complements the effects of the peelings, improves them and maintains them for a long time. For this reason, Skin Tech has developed a line of creams especially designed for use both during treatment, when the skin is highly sensitive, and after the peelings, for daily skin care.
 In the present brochure, the recommendations and warnings that doctors should give their patients are emphasised (and repeated many times). Some of the most important are those of adopting measures of protection against sunlight and following the daily care measures indicated by the doctor.
I have not attempted to write a treatise on dermatology, nor even to write a text on aesthetic medicine, but rather contribute towards ensuring that Skin Tech products provide you with the same results that I have obtained with my patients.
