The authors of the study aim to evaluate the safety and efficacy of GLPSGLT serum in improving facial skin quality in patients undergoing GLP-1 RA or SGLT-2 therapy. In this split-face, double-blind pilot study, 7 female patients (median age 55) on stable GLP-1 RA/SGLT-2 therapy applied GLPSGLT serum to one side of the face and placebo to the other, twice daily for 6 weeks. Assessments at baseline, Day 21, and Day 42 included the Global Ranking Scale (GRS), standardized photography reviewed by a blinded physician, and a 26-item patient-satisfaction questionnaire. Treated sides showed statistically significant improvements across all 13 GRS domains vs placebo (<i>P</i> < .0001), particularly in hydration, surface roughness, pigmentation, vasculature, visible pores, and static wrinkles. The blinded reviewer correctly identified the treated side in all cases. Patients reported greater satisfaction with skin texture, firmness, radiance, and hydration. No adverse events were reported. GLPSGLT serum significantly improved skin quality in GLP-1 RA/SGLT-2-treated patients and was well-tolerated, warranting further investigation in larger, histologically assessed cohorts.</p><p><strong>Level of evidence 4 therapeutic: </strong></p>","PeriodicalId":72118,"journal":{"name":"Aesthetic surgery journal.

NFJIs have reproducibly demonstrated improvement in speed of drug absorption and efficacy; however, this technology has yet to prevail in the plastic surgery industry. Plastic surgeons have experimented with this technology to inject botulinum toxin for palmar hyperhidrosis, steroids for keloids/hypertrophic scars, and local anesthesia. A review was conducted to identify studies published in the last 10 years, indexed on PubMed, involving NFJI devices. Original articles that included ex vivo experimentation, animal studies, and human trials were included. Review articles, mathematical modeling theoretical articles, and nonmedical applications of jet injectors were excluded. A total of 767 identified articles were screened.
