“…Also, Ibrahim et al, reported significant improvement of SD with PRP therapy with comparable results to ours. We found the achievement with each modality of treatment was reasonable and nearly within the range of improvement mentioned in their study confirming that the three modalities of treatment achieved the goal of treating the striae successfully with a reasonable improvement but with no difference in the efficiency between the three modalities of treatment.…”

“…The results achieved with RF treatments depend on several factors, including patient individual characteristics, gender, age, degree of photoaging, and skin phototype [16]. Improvement of skin structure can also vary according to treated facial area, because different biological tissues have variable levels of impedance [4, 17].…”

Skin aging is a gradual process that leads to wrinkle formation, laxity, and overall changes in skin appearance. In recent years, the demands to noninvasive treatments for facial rejuvenation increased, along with a variety of technologies and devices, such as radiofrequency. The present study aimed to evaluate the clinical effects of a multipolar radiofrequency and pulsed electromagnetic field treatment for face and neck rejuvenation. Eleven patients with mild to moderate grades of photoaging underwent eight radiofrequency and pulsed electromagnetic field treatment sessions, once a week. Clinical photographs were taken before and a week after the end of the treatment, and improvement of facial skin parameters was evaluated by two different investigators. Significant improvement in skin laxity was observed in all eleven patients (100%). Improvement in facial contour was noted in 73% and 100% of patients when analyzed by investigators A and B, respectively. The score for overall improvement in skin condition was 3 ± 0.78 for investigator A and 3.6 ± 0.67 for investigator B. All patients were satisfied with the procedure and noted significant improvement in the skin. The combined multipolar radiofrequency and pulsed electromagnetic field device is effective and safe for treatment of aged skin in Brazilian patients.

“…Subcision with CO 2 infusion allows for reach beyond the length of the needle is an advantage for larger scars, this is akin to the same principle when Carbon Dioxide therapy is being used for reducing irregularity from liposuction [4] and cellulite [7,13]. The distension of the tissue caused by the gas triggers tissue repair and regeneration processes with neovascularization and remodeling of the extracellular matrix [7] and this contributes to the final results of the scars being treated [10,14,15].…”

Abstract:Modified subcision assisted with Carbon Dioxide insufflation is described in 2 patients; one with post acne scar and another with adhesion following liposuction. Both subjects have satisfactory results after 3 fortnightly sessions. The Carbon Dioxide flow controlled by the flow rate and procedurist's maneuvering adjusted to the size and positon of the scars help to separate the underlying fibrotic bands allowing the reach beyond the length of the subcising device; in this case being a 30G ½ needle. The results and recovery is being compared with traditional subcision and possible benefits of Carbon Dioxide assisted subcision are discussed.
