“…Thirteen studies reported on PUVA therapy in patients with GA (Table ), representing a pooled sample size of 131 patients, with a mean age of 60.5 years (6–89) and available data showed 76% ( n = 80/105) were female 10,11,22,25,27,29,30,32‐37 . Overall, PUVA showed complete response in 59% ( n = 77/131) of patients with GA in mean 2.1 months, partial response in 25% (n = 33/131) in mean 2.2 months, and no response in 16% ( n = 21/131) (Table 1).…”

“…Ten studies included in this review reported on UVA1 phototherapy in patients with GA (Table ), representing a sample size of 89 patients, with mean age of 61.1 years (45–74) and 78% ( n = 45/58) were females 17‐23,33,36,37,46‐48 . Available data demonstrate that UVA1 led to complete response in 31% (n = 27/86) of patients within mean of 0.8 months, partial response in 36% ( n = 31/86) within mean of 0.8 months, and no response in 33% ( n = 28/86) (Table 1, Figure 2).…”

“…Nine studies 27,28,32‐37 reported on UVB, nbUVB, and/or excimer laser therapy in patients with GA (Table ), representing a pooled sample size of 47 patients, with mean age 53.0 years (30–86), and available data showed that 78% ( n = 25/32) were female. Overall, UVB/nbUVB/excimer laser showed complete response in 40% ( n = 19/47) of patients with GA in mean 3.1 months, partial response in 26% ( n = 12/47) in mean 2.4 months, and no response in 34% ( n = 16/47) (Table 1).…”

Background: Granuloma annulare (GA) is challenging to treat, especially when generalized. A systematic review to support the use of light-and laser-based treatments for GA is lacking. Methods:We performed a systematic review by searching Cochrane, MEDLINE, and Embase. Title, abstract, full-text screening, and data extraction were done in duplicate. Quality appraisal was performed using the Joanna Briggs Institute critical appraisal tool for case series.Results: Thirty-one case series met the inclusion criteria, representing a total of 336 patients. Overall, psoralen ultraviolet light A (PUVA) showed the greatest frequency of cases with complete response (59%, n = 77/131), followed by photodynamic therapy (PDT) (52%, n = 13/25), ultraviolet light B (UVB)/narrowband UVB (nbUVB)/excimer laser (40%, n = 19/47), UVA1 (31%, n = 27/86), and lasers (29%, n = 8/28). Overall across treatment modalities, higher response rates were seen in localized GA compared to generalized GA. Conclusions:The body of evidence for light-and laser-based treatment of GA is sparse. Our results suggest that PUVA has a high clearance rate for GA but its use may be limited by concerns of carcinogenesis. Although PDT has the second highest clearance rate, adverse effects, small sample sizes, impractical treatment delivery (especially with generalized disease), and long-term concerns of carcinogenesis may limit its use. Although UVB/nbUVB/excimer laser appeared slightly less effective than other light therapies, we recommend UVB/nbUVB/excimer laser therapy as a first-line treatment for patients with generalized GA given wider availability and a favorable long-term safety profile.

BackgroundEnergy‐based photoelectric and ultrasonic devices are essential for skin rejuvenation and resurfacing in the field of plastic surgery and dermatology. Both functionality and appearance are impacted by factors that cause skin to age, and various energy types have variable skin penetration depths and modes of transmission.AimThe objective is to advise safe and efficient antiaging treatment while precisely and sensitively controlling and assessing the extent of thermal damage to tissues caused by different kinds of energy‐based devices.MethodsA literature search was conducted on PubMed to review the mechanisms of action and thermal effects of photoelectric and ultrasonic devices in skin remodeling applications.ResultsThis paper reviews the thermal effects of energy‐based devices in skin resurfacing applications, including the tissue level and molecular biochemical level. It seeks to summarize the distribution form, depth of action, and influencing factors of thermal effects in combination with the mechanisms of action of various types of devices.ConclusionAccurate control of thermal damage is crucial for safe and effective skin remodeling treatments. Thorough investigation of molecular biochemical indicators and signaling pathways is needed for real‐time monitoring and prevention of severe thermal injury. Ongoing research and technological advancements will improve the accuracy and control of thermal damage during treatments.
