Introduction: M89, containing 89% of Vichy mineralizing water and hyaluronic acid, has been developed to reinforce the skin barrier and to improve skin quality.
Aim:To assess efficacy and tolerability of M89.
Method:Observational survey of subjects with facial dermatoses or after esthetic procedures. M89 served as adjunct to conventional therapy. Clinician assessments of erythema, desquamation, irritation and patient-reported dryness, burning, itching, and stinging/tingling were conducted at baseline and 4 weeks. At 1 week and 4 weeks, patient assessed tolerance and satisfaction with M89.Results: A total of 1630 subjects participated; 92.5% were females. Mean age was 41.1 ± 11.3 years. Dermatological indications accounted for 32.5%, procedures for 67.5%. At 4 weeks, in subjects with dermatoses, erythema had resolved or improved in 68.0%, desquamation in 83.4%, and irritation in 93.3%. Dryness, burning, itching, and | 683 TAN eT Al.
Presentación de casos clínicos RESUMENLa urticaria pigmentosa es la forma más común de mastocitosis cutánea. Suele iniciarse de manera bimodal: un pico de incidencia desde el nacimiento hasta los 3 años de vida y otro entre la 2ª y 6ª décadas de la vida. El signo de Darier es constante sobre el área afectada, sin extenderse a piel vecina. La forma de comienzo precoz tiene buen pronóstico y desaparece hacia la adolescencia, pero la de comienzo tardío suele ser persistente o asociarse a afectación sistémica. Se comunican dos casos de urticaria pigmentosa, uno con la descripción clásica de la enfermedad y otro con presentación clínica infrecuente, por lo cual el pediatra debe incorporar ambas formas como manifestaciones distintas de una misma entidad.
Palabras clave: mastocitosis cutánea, urticaria pigmentosa, mastocitos.ABSTRACT Urticaria pigmentosa (UP) is the most frequent clinical feature of cutaneous mastocytosis. It usually begins in a bimodal way: a peak of incidence from birth to the age of 3 and the other one between 2 nd and 6 th decades of life. Darier´s sign is constant over the affected skin without affecting the surrounding skin. When UP starts early, it has a good prognosis disappearing into adolescence, while late onset is often associated with persistent or systemic involvement. This article reports two cases of UP, one with the classic description of the disease and the other with an unusual clinical presentation, prompting the pediatrician to incorporate both forms as different manifestations of the same entity.
A well-defined jawline is aesthetically pleasing, so that rejuvenation of the jawline is becoming part of routine aesthetic practice. Restoring balance to the lower face without surgical intervention requires a multiple treatment approach, among which the minimally invasive injectables play a central role. Nevertheless, amidst the plethora of different injectable products available, choosing the option that best suits the patient's need can be a challenge. A panel of experts sought to describe herein 4 clinical cases, illustrating the Contouring Plus technique, which provides a practical guidance for lower third assessment, choice of products, and treatment execution, especially among hyaluronic acid and calcium hydroxylapatite, aiming for immediate, as well as mid-to-long-term results.
