Background: Thread lifts are a noninvasive technique for suspending ptotic skin. Previous studies have failed to show long-term efficacy data with absorbable threads.
Objective: To review the recent literature evaluating mid and lower facial absorbable thread lifts over a four-year period from October 2018 to December 2022.
Article Synopsis
- Low-level laser/LED therapy (LLLT) might help treat various types of alopecia, but there's a lack of comprehensive reviews on its effectiveness across different types.* -
- A systematic review examined 38 studies involving 3,098 patients, finding significant improvements in hair density for those with androgenetic alopecia after undergoing LLLT for 4 to 26 weeks.* -
- While LLLT shows promise for androgenetic alopecia, more research is needed to assess its effectiveness for other types of hair loss.*
Article Synopsis
- Acne affects over 90% of adolescents, with about 47% developing acne scars, leading to significant psychological and social impacts, highlighting the need for better treatment options.
- Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is a treatment derived from the patient's own blood that helps with healing and tissue repair, and may work even better when paired with laser therapy, which creates controlled skin damage to promote regeneration.
- This review analyzed six recent studies and concluded that the combination of PRP and laser therapy results in better outcomes for treating acne scars than using either treatment alone.
It is the realization of a long-dreamed aspiration to create a university that would advance global health delivery by training a new generation of global health leaders who are equipped to not just build, but sustain effective and equitable health systems.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFWe introduce a portable dual-comb spectrometer operating in the visible spectral region for atmospheric monitoring of NO, a pollution gas of major importance. Dual-comb spectroscopy, combining key advantages of fast, broadband and accurate measurements, has been established in the infrared as a method for the investigation of atmospheric gases with kilometer-scale absorption path lengths. With the presented dual-comb spectrometer centered at 517 nm, we make use of the strong absorption cross section of NO in this spectral region.
