EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in June 1887, depicts a pioneering moment in the history of dermatology as Russian dermatologist, Aleksei Gerasimovich Polotebnov (1838-1907), demonstrates his innovative electrical skin treatment. Polotebnov, a visionary in his field, dedicated his life to the prevention and cure of various skin diseases. In this demonstration, he showcases his latest discovery, an electrical treatment, which aimed to stimulate the skin's natural healing processes. Polotebnov's groundbreaking work came at a time when the medical community was just beginning to understand the complexities of the skin and its various afflictions. His inventive spirit led him to experiment with various treatments, many of which were unconventional for the time. The electrical skin treatment, in particular, was a radical departure from traditional methods, which often involved harsh chemicals or invasive procedures. During the demonstration, Polotebnov can be seen applying electrodes to a patient's skin, likely connected to a battery or other power source. The electrical current, when passed through the skin, would cause a slight tingling or pulsing sensation, believed to promote blood flow and encourage the skin's natural healing processes. This photograph is a testament to Polotebnov's dedication and ingenuity, as well as his commitment to advancing the field of dermatology. His pioneering work paved the way for future discoveries and innovations in skin care and treatment, ultimately improving the lives of countless individuals suffering from various skin diseases.
