Abstract
Photodermatology is a form of photobiology encompassing many interactions between light sources and the skin, from photo-induced or photo-exacerbated cutaneous diseases to light-based dermatologic therapies. This chapter aims to provide an overview of current photodermatologic topics. The first section reviews foundational principles upon which modern photodermatology is built, such as the electromagnetic spectrum, properties of light, and how it interacts with the skin. The majority of this chapter is dedicated to photodermatoses. Lastly, the chapter discusses several therapies such as phototherapy and lasers, which harness powerful light properties in clinical practice.
