OBJECTIVE The use of transdermal therapeutic systems has spread worldwide since they allow effective local drug delivery. In the present study, we investigated the efficacy and safety of a new betamethasone valerate medicated plaster (Betesil®) to manage facial swelling, edema, inflammation,

OBJECTIVE To prospectively investigate the safety and efficacy of a novel frequency-doubled nanosecond-pulsed laser with discontinuous beam energy distribution (2RT, Ellex) for the treatment of diabetic macular edema. METHODS Twenty-three consecutive patients (38 eyes) with newly diagnosed diabetic

Ultra-pulsed fractional CO2 laser is an efficient, precise, and safe therapeutic intervention for skin refreshing, although accompanied with prolonged edema and erythema. In recent years, autologous platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has been proven to promote wound and soft tissue healing and collagen

This study assessed selective dermal rejuvenation using sequential intradermal injections of carbon dioxide and hyaluronic acid as a treatment of facial wrinkles. An injection device was designed. After topical anesthesia, 0.1-mL carbon dioxide was gently injected intradermally so as to spread

The present study investigated the use of a novel hyaluronic acid serum in combination with a cream comprising a mixture of human growth factors in conjunction with the micro laser peel procedure for skin rejuvenation. After preconditioning the face with the hyaluronic acid serum followed by the

Skin resurfacing for the purpose of rejuvenation and repair continues to evolve with the development of noninvasive or minimally invasive surgical substitutes. Advances in laser therapy, microneedling, and platelet-rich plasma have reinvigorated research in wound repair and regenerative science. An

BACKGROUND Many recent advances in face lift techniques have been made to reverse the aging process of the mid-face. In this study, we present a new technique by which mid-face rejuvenation can be achieved in double-angle vectors and allows adaption to the underlying bony structure. The locked cheek

Standard face-lift techniques are excellent for the treatment of the jawline and neck. Treatment of the area between the lower eyelid and the corner of the mouth required the development of techniques in the intermediate lamella of the face. Alternative techniques of subperiosteal dissection by

The central oval of the face is a distinct anatomic and aesthetic unit. Early signs of aging and advanced features of aging are manifested primarily in this unit. Standard face lift techniques are ineffective in treating this area. Intermediate layer (sub-SMAS, [superior musculo-aponeurotic system],

The fractional resurfacing (Fraxel laser) is a new procedure for facial and extrafacial rejuvenation. His claim is obtain a great efficacy on wrinkles, close to those of the CO(2) and erbium lasers, but without their risks and long lasting down time. We use a scanner, able to create multiple (around

BACKGROUND The malar region has been a crucial target in many facial rejuvenation techniques because the beauty and youthful contour of a convex midface and a smooth eyelid-cheek sulcus are key features of a pleasing face-lift result. The full midface subperiosteal lift has helped to address these

High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) is widely used for skin rejuvenation and tightening. The aim of this study was to determine the safety and efficacy of HIFU for face and neck rejuvenation. A systematic search of peer reviewed articles published before December 2017 was performed using

BACKGROUND Emervel consists of a range of 5 hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers (Touch, Classic, Lips, Deep, and Volume), with a fixed HA concentration (20 mg/mL), and various degrees of cross-linking and calibration. OBJECTIVE To describe the current use of Emervel fillers in France. METHODS Prospective

BACKGROUND There is currently a high demand for a concurrent system of skin rejuvenation accompanying rhtidectomy. CO2 laser treatment prior to surgical ablative reduction has produced promising results, but the adjunct service of laser treatment at the time of surgery has never been
