Elevating Dermatology Beyond Aesthetics: Perinatal-Derived Advancements for Rejuvenation, Alopecia Strategies, Scar Therapies, and Progressive Wound Healing.

Dermatologists have been interested in recent advancements in regenerative therapy. Current research is actively investigating the possibility of placental tissue derivatives to decelerate the skin aging process, enhance skin regeneration, reduce scarring, and prevent hair loss. Amniotic membranes (AM) play a crucial role in regenerative medicine as they serve as a suitable means of transporting stem cells, growth hormones, cytokines, and other essential compounds.

Sodium Alginate/Poly (Acrylicacid) Hydrogel Composite, Potential Carrier for Fibroblast Growth Factor1 (FGF1) Delivery.

Fibroblast growth factor1 is a powerful signaling molecule that plays a critical role in injury repair of diverse tissue by stimulating cell growth and angiogenesis. FGF1 has significant role in the cell fate and regulating inflammation with short half-life and poor in vivo stability. The encapsulation of the growth factor in the hydrogel led to peptide protect from the degradation and/or immune recognition and enable controlled drug delivery over a longer period of time.

The investigation and comparison of the efficacy and safety of stromal vascular fraction (SVF), platelet rich plasma (PRP), and 1064-nm Q-switched Nd:YAG laser in reducing nanofat treated infraorbital dark circles and wrinkles: A controlled blinded randomized clinical trial.

Background: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of stromal vascular fraction (SVF), platelet rich plasma (PRP), and 1064-nm Q-switched Nd:YAG laser in reducing nanofat treated dark circles and wrinkles under the eyes.

Method: This study was a single-blinded randomized clinical trial conducted on patients with suborbital darkening under the eyes that randomly divided into control and case groups. In the control group, 15 patients were treated with one session of nanofat injection only, and five patients of each intervention groups received one session of nanofat+SVF injection, nanofat+PRP injection, and nanofat injection+Nd:YAG laser, respectively.

Efficacy and safety of radiofrequency in the treatment of hidradenitis suppurativa; a systematic review.

Background And Aims: Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is an inflammatory skin disease affecting apocrine gland-bearing sites of the body. Radiofrequency (RF) is a minimally invasive method that acts by minimizing thermal damage to the dermis, resulting in collagen synthesis and scar improvement. We systematically reviewed the efficacy and safety of RF in treating HS.

Preclinical and Clinical Studies on the Use of Extracellular Vesicles Derived from Mesenchymal Stem Cells in the Treatment of Chronic Wounds.

To date, the widespread implementation of therapeutic strategies for the treatment of chronic wounds, including debridement, infection control, and the use of grafts and various dressings, has been time-consuming and accompanied by many challenges, with definite success not yet achieved. Extensive studies on mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have led to suggestions for their use in treating various diseases. Given the existing barriers to utilizing such cells and numerous pieces of evidence indicating the crucial role of the paracrine signaling system in treatments involving MSCs, extracellular vesicles (EVs) derived from these cells have garnered significant attention in treating chronic wounds in recent years.

Evaluation of the effects of adding an adipose tissue-derived stromal vascular fraction to platelet-rich plasma injection in the treatment of androgenetic alopecia: A randomized clinical trial.

Background: Stromal vascular fraction (SVF) cells derived from adipose tissue and platelet-rich plasma (PRP) are among novel treatments for androgenetic alopecia (AGA). We aimed to investigate the effect of adding SVF to PRP and compare it to administering PRP injection alone.

Methods: Eighteen patients were randomly divided into two groups of nine.

Treatment of horizontal neck wrinkles by Endolift laser: Biometric measurement.

Background: One of the common esthetic complaints of patients is horizontal neck wrinkles that have limited treatment modality.

Aim: In the present study, we evaluated the efficacy of the Endolift laser on the horizontal neck wrinkles.

Methods: Totally, 10 healthy female and male patients suffering horizontal neck wrinkles were joined in this study.

The role of BAFF and BAFF-R inhibitors in the treatment of immune thrombocytopenia; a focused review.

Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is an autoimmune-driven disease characterized by increased destruction and impaired platelet production resulting in an enhanced risk of bleeding. Immunosuppressant agents are the most common treatment strategies for ITP. Despite their efficacy, these medications often cause unpredictable side effects.

The Therapeutic Efficacy of Freeze-Dried Human Amniotic Membrane Allograft Gel for Diabetic Foot Ulcers: A Phase-1 Clinical Trial.

Diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) are classified as hard-to-heal wounds, which occur in approximately 15% of diabetic patients. Several interventions have shown efficacy in reducing the risk of amputation among patients with DFU, including timely diagnosis and management of infection and ischemia, debridement of necrotic tissues, reducing mechanical pressure on ulcers, and patient education. One major challenge in the management of DFUs is optimizing wound care to improve healing outcomes.
