Hautverjüngung: ethnische Besonderheiten

  • Chapter
Hautalterung

Auszug

Johann Friedrich Blumenbach (1752–1840) klassifizierte 1775 in seiner lateinischen Doktorarbeit als Erster die menschlichen Hautfarben. Er unterschied zwischen 5 Typen: kaukasisch, mongolisch, äthiopisch, amerikanisch (Nord- und Südamerika) und malaysisch. Den Terminus „kaukasisch“ entnahm er dem Reisebericht von Jean Chardin (1643–1713), der Ende des 17. Jahrhunderts den Kaukasus bereist hatte. Dieser schrieb: „the blood of Georgia is the most beautiful in the west and, I think, the world. I never saw an ugly face in that land, neither male nor female; rather I saw the face of Angles ...“ (Moussayassul 1936, S. 52). In der angloamerikanischen Literatur wurde später der Begriff „caucasian“ mit „weißer Haut“ gleichgesetzt. Demgegenüber wurde die „nichtweiße Haut“ als „non-caucasian“ bzw. „ethnic skin“ bezeichnet. Afroamerikaner, Asiaten und Latinoamerikaner werden in den USA auch als Menschen mit „skin of color“ zusammengefasst (Taylor u. Cook-Bolden 2002). In deutschsprachigen dermatologischen Standardwerken wird das Thema Hautfarbe außerhalb der Tropendermatologie nicht weiter bearbeitet.
