Abstract

Women are living longer today, composing the majority of persons aged 65 and over. Their dermatologic needs are unique and cross ethnic and cultural lines. With this increased life expectancy comes an increased occurrence of skin disorders. The identification and treatment of these conditions is important for the practicing clinician. This article reviews some of the more common dermatologic disorders of older women, and discusses the latest treatments and issues facing this geriatric population.
