Ayurderma: Evidence-Informed Ayurvedic Skin Care and Integrative Dermatology Broché

Skin is a barrier, immune organ, sensory field, microbial habitat and social surface. AYURDERMA brings the diagnostic discipline of modern dermatology into a careful conversation with classical Ayurvedic reasoning. It explains twak, doṣa-dūṣya involvement, nidāna, samprāpti and individualized formulation logic without presenting traditional concepts as proven molecular equivalences.Across twelve richly illustrated chapters, Dr. Anil Kumar Y examines skin anatomy, morphology, red flags, daily and seasonal care, external remedies, medicine quality, pharmacovigilance, eczema, psoriasis, acne, post-inflammatory pigmentation, vitiligo, infections, infestations, supervised procedures and the mind-skin axis. Basic remedies are intentionally conservative and clearly separated from physician-led medicines and procedures. Readers learn when a home measure may support comfort, when a product requires quality verification, and when timely dermatology, emergency or public-health care is essential.The evidence discussion draws on WHO and ICMR frameworks, Ministry of Ayush and CCRAS resources, pharmacopoeial standards, official e-Saṃhitā sources and PubMed-indexed research. Positive, negative and uncertain findings are presented together so that plausibility is not mistaken for clinical proof.Designed for Ayurveda students, clinicians, integrative-health professionals and informed readers, AYURDERMA is a practical, safety-first reference for responsible skin care and future research.
