“…Otherwise, most of our participants had skin phototype III, IV, and V. In our study, none of the participants were diagnosed as having actinic keratosis that could be attributed to the skin phototype of our participants where these lesions are not common. Magdy and Sadek (2015) reported the most prevalent findings in facial photoaging was solar lentigo and the least was the actinic keratosis. They studied a smaller scale of subjects with skin types III and IV that may result in selected inconsistency with our results.…”

“…Magdy and Sadek (2015) stated that individuals with Glogau IV achieved the highest DPAS score and yellowish discoloration. Our study along with Magdy and Sadek (2015) study proved that the dermoscopic features can parallel the increase in the clinical Glogau's scale and consequently can be a more quantitative substitution.…”

Summary Background Few studies have evaluated facial photoaging by dermoscopy. Only one study has been performed among Egyptians. Objective To study and compare the dermoscopic features of facial aging in males and females and to relate these features to clinical criteria. Methods This study included 217 subjects divided into two groups; 117 males and 100 females. Each group was classified into three subgroups according to age. The dermoscopic features were reported according to dermoscopy photoaging scale (DPAS) criteria besides diffuse erythema and seborrheic keratosis and were related to significant clinical factors. Results The most prominent DPAS features in males were yellowish discoloration, hypo‐hyperpigmented macules, superficial wrinkles, criss‐cross wrinkles, and deep wrinkles. The most prominent DPAS findings in females were yellow papules, hypo‐hyperpigmented macules, solar lentigo, and superficial wrinkles. A significant difference between males and females was detected regarding yellowish discoloration, white lines, hypo‐hyperpigmented macules, senile comedones, telangiectasia, all wrinkle types, and DPAS score besides diffuse erythema and seborrheic keratosis. The DPAS score and the dermoscopic features were more prominent with male gender, increase in age, sun exposure, Glogau's scale, and smoking and were detected early in skin phototypes II and III. Conclusion We found a significant difference in various dermoscopic features in males compared to age‐matched females. Also, we detected increase in DPAS features and score with male gender, aging, sun exposure, Glogau's scale, and smoking. Therefore, dermoscopy is an objective technique that detects selectively photoaging in males and females that aids in proper choice of various targeted treatment modalities.

“…Magdy and Sadek state that individuals with Glogau IV had the highest DPAS scores and yellowish discoloration. 24 This present study is in line with the study of Magdy and Sadek, which proves that the dermoscopy picture increases with the Glogau scale and can be used as a substitute quantitative score.…”

Background: Skin is considered a reflection of a person's appearance, so it is normal if many people try to take care of their skin, especially facial skin, and retard the aging process. Dermoscopy is a quick, non-invasive technique that allows physicians to observe the skin. Different ethnic groups may show different signs of aging on the face. Medan is a multiethnic city and thus might show facial skin aging differently. This study aimed to evaluate facial skin aging through the Dermoscopic Photoaging Scale (DPAS) and assess the relationship between DPAS, Glogau and Fitzpatrick scales among various ethnic groups in Medan, Indonesia. Subjects and Methods: This cross-sectional study enrolled 155 subjects from 10 ethnicities in Medan. The examination of facial aging is based on DPAS using 11 criteria, the Glogau scale, and the Fitzpatrick skin type. Results: Malay and Karonese got the highest DPAS score. There was a significant difference between DPAS, Glogau, and Fitzpatrick in age (p = <0.001,<0.001 and 0.032), and Fitzpatrick scores in ethnicity (p <0.001). There was a strong and significant correlation between DPAS and Glogau scores (p < 0.001, r = 0.748), while DPAS and Fitzpatrick's scores showed a moderate and significant correlation (p < 0.001, r = 0.288). Conclusion: The highest DPAS scores were found in the Malay and Karonese ethnic groups. There were significant differences between DPAS, Glogau, and Fitzpatrick in age and Fitzpatrick scores in ethnicity. There was a strong and significant correlation between DPAS scores and the Glogau scale and a moderate and significant correlation between DPAS and Fitzpatrick scores in various ethnic groups.

Purpose Repeated exposure to ultraviolet light is the most significant factor that contributes to photoaging. Dermoscopy photoaging scale (DPAS) is a noninvasive examination utilized for the diagnosis of photoaging. However, there has been no study analyzing the correlation between DPAS and sun index. Hence, this study aims to find out the dermoscopic features of photoaging and its association with sun index score in the coastal population. Patients and Methods This was a descriptive cross-sectional study on individuals living in Cilincing, a coastal area, at North Jakarta. Healthy male or female subjects aged over 18 years old with sun exposure equal or more than 2 hours daily were recruited consecutively. History taking was performed to document the sociodemographic characteristics (age, gender, skin type, smoking habit) and sun index score. Physical examination and dermoscopic examination were conducted to determine DPAS score. Associations of DPAS and photoaging profiles were analyzed with Chi-squared test while correlation between DPAS score and sun index was analyzed with Pearson correlation test. Results A total of 100 subjects were included in this study. The median DPAS of the subjects was 9 (1–21). Right cheek had the highest median DPAS of 3 (0–6), followed by the left cheek with median DPAS of 3 (0–7). Men had a higher median DPAS score than women (9 vs 8). There was a significant difference between DPAS score and age (p<0.001). There was no significant correlation between DPAS score and sun index (r = −0.005; p = 0.957). Conclusion Factors associated with high DPAS score were cheek predilection, male, actively smoking, Fitzpatrick skin type IV, and increasing age. DPAS score has no correlation with sun index.
