Impact on the Quality of Life Following Minimally Invasive Cosmetic Procedures: Assessment Through the Skin Rejuvenation Outcome Evaluation Questionnaire
BACKGROUND Aesthetic procedures are widely performed by dermatologists and plastic surgeons, often with subjective results. In cosmetic dermatology, there is a lack of studies that use accurate instruments to assess result outcomes. Quality of life (QoL) questionnaires can objectively assess results. OBJECTIVE To assess the impact of nonsurgical facial cosmetic procedures on QoL. MATERIALS AND METHODS This was a longitudinal observational study performed with 81 patients who underwent facial cosmetic procedures at a University Hospital in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The Skin Rejuvenation Outcome Evaluation qu...

Wound Healing After Fractional Skin Harvesting
BACKGROUND Autologous fractional full-thickness skin grafting is a method of harvesting full-thickness skin with reduced donor site morbidity compared with conventional skin grafting. OBJECTIVE To demonstrate that full-thickness skin microbiopsies can be harvested with minimal scarring or complications. MATERIALS AND METHODS In a nonrandomized, self-controlled, pilot trial, subjects (n = 8) underwent tissue harvesting of full-thickness skin columns of 200, 400, 500, 600, 800 μm, 1, and 2 mm diameters. The extent of scarring was measured by using the Patient and Observer Scar Assessment Scale and blinded ...

Muscle Stimulation for Aesthetic Body Shaping: A Comprehensive and Critical Review
CONCLUSION Electromagnetic muscle stimulation represents an effective therapeutic intervention for abdominal contouring that yields increased muscle thickness, and reduced abdominal fat thickness, for up to 1 year after treatment. Larger, controlled studies are needed to determine the efficacy of electromagnetic muscle stimulation alone for contouring of buttocks, thighs, arms, and calves. (Source: Dermatologic Surgery)

Patient Comfort, Safety, and Effectiveness of Resilient Hyaluronic Acid Fillers Formulated With Different Local Anesthetics
BACKGROUND Maximizing patient comfort during hyaluronic acid gel injection is a common concern that is usually addressed by selecting fillers with lidocaine. OBJECTIVE Two randomized, double-blinded, split-face trials aimed to demonstrate noninferiority of specific hyaluronic acid fillers incorporating mepivacaine (RHA-M) versus their lidocaine controls, at providing pain relief. METHODS Thirty subjects per trial received injections of RHAR-M versus RHAR, and RHA4-M versus RHA4, respectively, in the perioral rhytids (PR) and nasolabial folds (NLF). Pain was assessed on a visual analog scale; aesthetic eff...
