Computer Program as Innovative Approach in Evaluation of Quality and Organization of Medical Care in Cosmetology

Abstract

INTRODUCTION: Injections of botulinum toxin preparations are the most popular cosmetic procedure. However, in practice, sufficient cosmetic effect is not always noted. Study, analysis and improvement of botulinum therapy by a doctor, familiarization of the patient with the correction plan including long-term monitoring, are necessary measures to increase the compliance and the extent of satisfaction with the results, which will permit to further improve the quality of medical care. Despite numerous developments in the field of organization and quality management in healthcare, this problem remains relevant today. The article describes a clinical example of using a computer program for evaluation of the evidence of facial mimic wrinkles after botulinum therapy in different follow-up periods, and evaluation of the effectiveness of botulinum therapy using mathematical model for calculation of the integral quality coefficient and visibility graphs. CONCLUSION: The program helps a practicing cosmetologist evaluate the effectiveness of the procedure, master the skills of quality expertise and improve organization of medical care in the field of esthetic medicine.
