This meta-analysis investigates the effectiveness and safety of the laser-assisted delivery of tranexamic acid (TXA) to treat melasma. A literature review was conducted by searching publication platforms to search for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that compared laser-assisted delivery of TXA with laser-alone or topical TXA-alone treatment. The Embase, Web of Science, PubMed, Google Scholar, and Cochrane Library databases were searched, and Melasma Area Severity Index (MASI)/modified MASI (mMASI) scores used as the clinical improvement outcomes. All statistical analyses were performed using the RevMan software (Review Manager, V.5.3). The standardized mean differences and 95% confidence intervals were used to assess the results. Five RCTs were included in this meta-analysis. These studies used ablative fractional photothermolysis and nonablative dermal remodeling laser modalities. The results showed that both laser modalities combined with TXA significantly decreased the MASI/mMASI scores (P = .0003).

A literature review was performed with the search keywords including \"genital aesthetic injection, vaginal injection, vaginoplasty, vaginal tightening, penile augmentation, penis injection, hyaluronic acid, fat grafting, pulmonary embolism, alveolar hemorrhage, hypoxemia, and dyspnea.\" Among the 14 cases from 11 articles enrolled, 12 patients were female, and two were male. Eight patients received silicone injection, followed by two received fat grafting and hyaluronic acid injection, respectively. All the female patients had one single injection site, including 11 cases for the vaginal wall and one for G-spot, while all the male patients received injections into the penis and scrotum. The main symptoms were dyspnea and chest pain. Almost 60% of FINTPE patients presented respiratory disorders within 12 hours post-operation. Treatment includes oxygen therapy, corticosteroids, and anticoagulation. Five patients improved with an average of 14.6-day treatment, and seven died due to organ failures. Genital aesthetic filler injections are experimental procedures without being strictly reviewed or approved.
