"This is the most comprehensive book on acne where
both physical and psychological managements are most thoroughly discussed. Moreover,
this book is written with amazing empathy and sensitivity for the
sufferers.To call this a book on
acne is a gross understatement; in all fairness, this is in fact
a book on life as discussed through the topic of acne. I
would like to congratulate Dr. Fried that only he with dual expertise
in dermatology and psychology, boundless compassion and mastery of
life, could have written."

"Dr.Fried clearly demonstrates his thorough understanding of
both Dermatology and Psychology in his sensitive, eloquent presentation
of the physical and emotional aspects of acne."
"In Healing Adult Acne Dr. Fried has successfully accomplished
what so many physicians cannot, he has taken a complex subject and
put it in the grasp of everyone, acne sufferer, therapists who work
with skin disorders or family physicians."
Steven Howard, Ph.D.
Psychologist and Psychoanalyst New York City
"Finally: A book that gets to the heart of the psychological
aspects of acne! Dr. Fried is the premiere
doctor in the field of psychodermatology — and offers practical
advice on not only healing the emotional triggers of this condition
that robs one of self-esteem, but also treating it with the latest
advances in skin care. This is a must read for anyone who’s
battling regular breakouts."

"Rick Fried is one of
the most brilliant minds in psycho-cutaneous medicine, worldwide. He
has an extraordinary grasp of the interface between
dermatology and the psyche, drawing from his unique and extensive
experience as a psychologist, physician, and dermatologist. This
book should be on the reference shelf of every practitioner who
deals with the human psyche and/or skin."
