Abstract

Keeping ourselves up to date with current professional practices is beneficial for our patients, other colleagues, and for our own sake. There are numerous sources of information, however, we must be very careful when reading news or communications about new diagnosis methods, prevention, or, especially, treatment of different skin conditions and diseases. With this in mind, we have analyzed new or controversial topics and reviewed the corresponding literature. To contribute to our colleagues’ continuous development, we present a short summary of cutting-edge subjects that include melasma, vaginal laser, vitiligo, atopic dermatitis, cellulite, acne, pigmentary defects, use of cannabinoids in dermatology, and dermoscopy.
