Subcision and microneedling are cutting-edge treatment options available nowadays. In this study, we aimed to compare the efficacy of microneedling with platelet-rich plasma (PRP) against subcision with PRP in treating atrophic post-acne scars in a split-face study design. Fifty patients with atrophic post-acne facial scars were included in this prospective interventional study. Group A included the left side of the face managed by microneedling with PRP and group B included the right side of the face that was subjected to subcision with PRP. Results were assessed based on Goodman and Baron qualitative and quantitative grading. In our study, at the end of the treatment, on the left side, 5 (10%) had 1 grade of improvement showing good response, 35 (70%) had 2 grades of improvement showing very good response, and 10 (20%) had 3 grades of improvement showing excellent response. On the right side, 1 (2%) patient had no improvement in acne grade showing poor response, 9 (18%) had 1 grade of improvement showing good response, 25 (50%) had 2 grades of improvement showing very good response, whereas 15 (30%) had 3 grades of improvement showing excellent response. Till date, apart from ours no other study has compared the two modalities head-to-head with adjuvant PRP in both groups. Although both modalities showed statistically significant results individually, there was no significant difference in qualitative improvement of acne scars between the two groups.","PeriodicalId":15415,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Cutaneous and Aesthetic Surgery","volume":"233 8","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139206976","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Lasers like Alexandrite, diode, and Nd:Yag lasers have been used for hair reduction with varying efficacy. Trichoscopy of hair is a simple noninvasive method of hair assessment. However, it has not been used in the assessment of diode laser hair reduction. This study aimed to assess the efficacy and safety of diode laser hair reduction in skin color with the help of clinical and trichoscopic assessment. This prospective observational study included 73 patients of hirsutism recruited in 18-month period. All participants received sessions of 805nm diode laser at monthly intervals up to six sessions. Clinical and trichoscopic evaluation along with photographs were obtained at each visit. Side effects, if any, were noted in every sitting. All patients were females of Fitzpatrick skin types III–V. All clinical parameters showed statistically significant hair reduction when compared with baseline. Trichoscopic parameters of hair reduction like total hair count, terminal hair count, and terminal/vellus hair ratio showed reduction compared to baseline which was statistically significant (P < 0.05). The most common side effect noted in our study was pain followed by erythema and perifollicular edema. Diode laser is an effective and safe procedure for the reduction of unwanted facial hair, even in darker skin types. We also wish to emphasize that trichoscopy for the assessment of laser hair reduction is a recent, noninvasive, simple, and underutilized tool. No serious adverse events were noted in our study.","PeriodicalId":15415,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Cutaneous and Aesthetic Surgery","volume":"48 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139206882","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Facial pigmentation may be multifactorial and is only rarely diagnosed accurately by a detailed history and clinical examination. Pigmentary disorders cause psychological distress and negatively impact the quality of life of an individual. (1) To study different dermoscopic patterns in facial melanosis. (2) To estimate the frequency of different dermoscopic patterns. Patients with facial hyperpigmentation attending the dermatology OPD were recruited after taking their written consent. A detailed history was taken to collect demographic data. Clinical examination and dermoscopy were done in all patients. Biopsy was done as and when required. Descriptive statistics has been used to describe the quantitative data. Qualitative data were presented as frequency and percentage for clinical and dermoscopic patterns. The study included 100 patients with 15 different facial melanoses. The most common age group affected was 21–40 years in 53 (53%) cases. The female-to-male ratio was 1.63:1. Melasma was reported as the most common cause of facial melanosis constituting 49 (49%) of the total cases. Out of the total melasma cases, epidermal melasma constituted 22 (45%) cases, dermal melasma constituted four (4%) cases and mixed melasma constituted 23 (47%) cases. Other cases included were lichen planus pigmentosus (14; 14%), facial acanthosis nigricans (14; 14%), periorbital hyperpigmentation (7; 7%), post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (4; 4%), exogenous ochronosis (2; 2%), lentigines (2; 2%), frictional melanosis (2;2%), and one case each of Becker’s nevus, nevus of Ota, olanzapine-induced hyperpigmentation, Riehl’s melanosis, macular amyloidosis, and tanning. Melasma was reported as the most common cause of facial melanosis. The most common dermoscopic feature was accentuated pseudopigment network. The study is beneficial in understanding the different clinical and dermoscopic patterns of facial melanosis, thus helping the physician to effectively manage the conditions and reduce the need of biopsy.

Evaluation of lines was assessed with grades of 0 (none), 1 (mild), 2 (moderate), and 3 (severe) at a maximum smile and rest by using ANTERA 3D camera. There was a statistical significance in lateral canthal lines wrinkles reduction on the Stunnox sides compared to pretreatment and at weeks 4, 8, and 12, respectively (all P < 0.05). The wrinkle reduction was similar to the effects of the control internationally available brand of botulinum toxin A. The clinical improvement of lateral canthal line wrinkles was greatest at 4 weeks after injection and the improvement lasted until 12 weeks of treatment with no adverse events observed.
