Many people choose cosmetic products that will make their skin, nails, and hair look and feel healthier. As people age, the quality of their skin, nails, and hair diminishes. For example, skin can become wrinkly while nails become yellow. In many cases, hair can become brittle, frayed, and thinner, not to mention losing color. Dermatology products help people deal with their skin, nails, and hair problems by combining both medicinal and cosmetic ingredients. Some products seek to fill in wrinkles and fine lines in the skin. Other products aim to strengthen and repair brittle nails and hair strands.
