conditions caused by gene mutations affecting skin's structure or function

Genetic Skin Disorders, also known as Inherited or Hereditary Skin Disorders, are conditions caused by mutations in genes that affect the skin's structure, function, or appearance. These disorders can manifest in various ways, such as abnormal skin pigmentation, blistering, or scaling, and are often present from birth or develop early in life. Examples include conditions like epidermolysis bullosa and ichthyosis.
