About the journal
Aims and Scope
Dermatologic Therapy has been created to fill an important void in the dermatologic literature: the lack of a readily available source of up-to-date information on the treatment of specific cutaneous diseases and the practical application of specific treatment modalities. Each issue of the journal consists of a series of scholarly review articles written by leaders in dermatology in which they describe, in very specific terms, how they treat particular cutaneous diseases and how they use specific therapeutic agents. The information contained in each issue is so practical and detailed that the reader should be able to directly apply various treatment approaches to daily clinical situations. Because of the specific and practical nature of this publication, Dermatologic Therapy not only serves as a readily available resource for the day-to-day treatment of patients, but also as an evolving therapeutic textbook for the treatment of dermatologic diseases

Purpose
Dermatologic Therapy is a bimonthly journal. Each issue consists of a series of scholarly review articles focusing on either the treatment of a specific disease or the clinical application of a specific therapy or related group of therapeutic agents. The main purpose of this journal is to fill a void in the dermatologic literature in which experts describe very specifically how they treat a specific condition or use a particular medication. This information should be so practical that the reader can directly apply the information to clinical situations. Because of the specific and practical nature of the information contained in each issue, it is anticipated that, over time, this publication can serve as an evolving therapeutic textbook for dermatology.
