ADVANCES IN HEALTH CARE FOR WOMEN OVER 40  

Preconference
Update on Dermatology: Common Skin Conditions, Advances in Cosmetic Dermatology, and Evaluating Vulvar Lesions
Thursday, May 29
(rx = 1.5 hrs.)

You asked at the 2007 conference and we have responded! Join your colleagues at this comprehensive update on dermatology which will focus on common skin conditions as women age, state-of-the-art techniques and products for reducing the dermatologic effects of aging, and clinically differentiating common and not-so-common vulvar lesions. Through didactic presentation, “test your skills” sessions, case analysis, and optional hands-on trainings, you will be challenged to improve your diagnostic and management skills in the dermatology arena. This Preconference will enable you to:

  • Identify common skin conditions in aging women.

  • Explain the differential diagnosis of STD-related vulvar lesions.

  • Discuss recent advances in cosmetic dermatology.

  • Reinforce clinical acumen in the diagnosis of neoplastic lesions.

  • Determine appropriate treatment and management of common skin and vulvar conditions.
