Background: The rapid growth of aesthetic medicine has led to an increased demand for non-surgical cosmetic procedures in the frontal region of the face. However, alongside this rise in popularity, there is a growing awareness of the potential complications associated with these procedures especially connected with fillers. The intricate vascular anatomy of the forehead, specifically the supratrochlear (STA) and supraorbital (SOA) arteries, poses significant risks if not thoroughly understood.

Introduction: The pathogenesis of atopic dermatitis (AD) involves complex interactions between environmental factors, the skin microbiome, epidermal barrier defects, and altered immune responses that develop on a not fully understood specific genetic background.
Aim: We aimed to evaluate the contribution of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the IL-35 genes ( and ) towards AD susceptibility and clinical characteristics of AD in the Polish population. Two SNPs (rs568408, rs582054) in and one SNP (rs428253) in were selected.
Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic inflammatory skin disease affecting both children and adults. The clinical picture of AD manifests in typical skin lesions, such as localized eczema and dry skin, with dominant, persistent itching that leads to sleep disturbances. The pathophysiology of AD has been extensively investigated with respect to epigenetic and genetic factors, skin barrier defects, as well as immunological and microbial disorders.

Therefore, this study aimed to get information-driven insights regarding the current disease burden and clinical management of patients with moderate-to-severe AD with common and differentiating aspects of the patient journey and establish a consensus.
Methods: In this modified 2-round Delphi panel, 133 questions were asked in total to 27 dermatologists.
