Description

Our skin covers 100% of our body! Obviously, taking care of it is vital. The arid, high desert environment of New Mexico creates some particular problems for skin as we age. Dermatologist Charles Phillips reviews common  problems in aging skin as well as those that might be more particular to the desert environment. Common skin cancers and benign lesions of the aging skin as well as rashes, dry skin, eczema, psoriasis, and seborrheic dermatitis are covered.

Charles Phillips, MD, graduated from the University of Texas Health Sciences Center. He is a staff dermatologist at the Raymond Murphy VA and a clinical professor of dermatology at UNM.
