The use of hyaluronic acid soft tissue fillers in aesthetic medicine exploded in recent years for many reasons, including being relatively safe. Incidence of delayed inflammatory reactions (DIRs) to hyaluronic acid soft tissue fillers range between 0.3% and 4.25%. These reactions are mediated by T-lymphocytes and can be triggered by flu-like illnesses, including SARS-CoV-2 infection. Vaccination may also induce hypersensitivity.

Numerous therapeutic strategies have been described for prevention and reduction of hypertrophic scars and keloids, but none of the treatments is effective in all patients. No universal consensus in treatment regimen has been established, and there is limited evidence-based literature to guide the correct management. The process of scar development is complex and requires deeper understanding of the molecular mechanisms that cause their development and recurrences. Despite many available modes of targeting keloid and hypertrophic scars, yet they remain an ongoing challenge to patients and clinicians. To date, no one therapy has been universally accepted as the gold standard for the treatment of all excessive scars nor has the capability of complete scar resolution The search of literature included peer-reviewed articles including clinical trials and scientific reviews. Literature was identified from electronic databases (MEDLINE/PubMed) through May 2021 and references of respective articles and only the articles published in English language were included.

Although many invasive and noninvasive approaches exist, management of keloids and hypertrophic scars remains challenging. By better understanding patient expectations regarding scar treatments, dermatologists can provide higher quality and more satisfying care. Survey patients age 18 to 80 years with a history of hypertrophic, keloid, or disfiguring scars. Overall, 187 participants completed the 25-question survey. Expectations and willingness were measured on a 1-5 Likert scale. Results were analyzed overall and by patient demographics. Older respondents more often expected scar reduction, while younger patients expected scar removal. Compared with Caucasians, Asian respondents were more symptomatic, more likely to have seen a physician, and more willing to undergo invasive therapies. Respondent willingness for treatment and their perceived efficacy significantly differed across gender, age, and race. This study explores a gap in the literature of what role patient expectations play in electing specific treatments. Although patient expectations are complex and context dependent, gaining more understanding of what therapies patients are willing to attempt, and their expectations from those therapies could help guide counseling with the goal setting realistic expectations to improve patient compliance and satisfaction.

Microfocused ultrasound with visualization (MFU-V) has emerged as a safe and effective treatment for skin laxity. As the nutritional status may contribute to skin aging, it would be interesting to evaluate whether different dietary patterns can also influence the response to MFU-V treatment for skin laxity.

Topical anesthesia is widely used in many dermatological and cosmetic procedures. Nevertheless, the stratum corneum serves as the skin barrier, impedes the transdermal drug delivery greatly, and results in insufficient analgesia. Cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) has been researched as a transdermal drug delivery promoter with ex vivo experiments for a few years, while clinical trials are scarce.

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is the most common cause of eczema. The skin condition affects millions of people worldwide. Severe cases of AD demand systemic treatment, but most AD cases rely on local therapy with topical corticosteroids, emollients, and moisturizing agents to alleviate eczema. Commonly, derma-cosmetics with a pH around 5.5 are used to treat eczematous lesions (EL). However, evidence is currently amassing that the use of mildly alkaline topical creams is beneficial for AD-related eczema treatment because of its effect on the inflammation in the skin.

The tear trough is the hollow concavity of the medial lower eyelid. Surgery can address tear trough deformities and reverse visible signs of periorbital aging. The previous methods of transconjunctival blepharoplasty with fat transposition were first described with subperiosteal placement of fat (Plast Reconstr Surg, 125, 2010,699, Aesthetic Surg J, 32, 2012, 426). This was followed by techniques with submuscular transposition of fat, which overcame certain difficulties associated with the subperiosteal methods (Clin Plast Surg, 20, 1993, 393, Arch Facial Plast Surg, 2, 2000, 16).

Apples are one of the most commonly eaten fruits in the world, and isoquercitrin is the main active ingredient in new bred varieties “Green ball” apple. Therefore, we are studying the functionality of the active ingredient of apple, a natural raw material that does not have toxicity or sensitivity problems.

Adapalene is a good choice in the treatment of acne with fewer side effects and high effectiveness. However, the absorption of adapalene through human skin is low. We investigated the effect of several enhancers on the skin absorption of adapalene.

A dominant interferon-gamma transcriptional signaling and cytotoxic T lymphocytes were accused as the main drivers of disease pathogenesis. Tofacitinib is a Janus kinase inhibitor that has been proven to interfere with the positive feedback loop between the follicular cell and the cytotoxic T lymphocytes in AA. There is an increasing number of studies reporting success with tofacitinib in AA.
