A 78-year-old Japanese man with adult-onset Still's disease that was refractory to conventional treatment, such as prednisolone (PSL) concomitant with methotrexate (MTX). Etanercept (50 mg/week) was added to PSL (12.5 mg/day) and MTX (12 mg/week). His manifestation improved dramatically, nonetheless massive edema of the periorbital region developed by the fourth injection, which kept his palpebral fissure completely closed. There was also a marked injection site reaction to etanercept. A diagnosis of angioedema due to etanercept was thus made, and the drug was discontinued. His angioedema began to ameliorate soon after antihistamines were introduced without any critical involvement, such as laryngeal obstruction.

Background: In most of the published plication techniques in face lift surgery, the vectors of plication are not entirely superiorly and vertically directed. The same applies with the deep plane, SMAS elevation techniques in the majority of which the vectors of traction are not superiorly vertically directed. The aging symptoms are mostly prominent at the anterior mobile face due to the gravity effect, and this is the area where attention should be focused to correct these symptoms following a face lift surgery.

Objective: Ultrasonographic examination is easy, fast, safe, and used in various fields; however, its application to the facial area has been limited. Complex anatomical structures are mixed within thin, soft tissues in the facial region; therefore, understanding their structural characteristics is crucial. This study aimed to use ultrasonography to obtain information on the layered structure and soft tissue thickness of the eye area around the orbicularis oculi muscle and provide guidance for clinical practice.

Injection cosmetic procedures have shown rapid continuing growth in the last 2 decades. Various substances are injected into the periorbital region for skin quality increase and correction of tear trough deformity, including hyaluronic acid, peptides, collagen, and others. Sometimes patients get accidentally injected with different substances that are not approved for cosmetic treatment in this anatomic area.

Background: Tear trough deformities are indicative of aging, progressively manifesting as pronounced infraorbital hollows. Although hyaluronic acid (HA) dermal fillers are favored for their safety and efficacy, quantifiable evidence of their effect of action still remains insufficient.
Aims: To investigate the efficacy of non-cross-linked HA compound in tear trough enhancement.
Clinical efficacy of OS-01 peptide formulation in reducing the signs of periorbital skin aging.

Background: The aging of the skin, particularly around the periorbital region, is a complex process characterized by the accumulation of senescent cells, decreased collagen production, and reduced skin elasticity, leading to visible signs such as fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging.
Objective: This study investigates the efficacy of a novel topical formulation, OS-01 EYE, containing the senomorphic peptide, OS-01, along with other active ingredients, in improving the skin around the eyes.
Methods: A 12-week clinical study was conducted with 22 participants who applied OS-01 EYE twice daily.
