Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

Dermatologic Surgery focuses on surgical and procedural interventions for skin conditions. Recent articles explore laser treatments for acquired melanocytic nevi, patient-reported outcomes of second-intention healing after Mohs surgery, and the accuracy of patient self-reporting of keratinocyte carcinoma. The journal also investigates the effects of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists on skin aging and body composition, as well as non-surgical treatments for fat reduction and autologous fat transfer for augmentation.
