There has been a notable rise in the prevalence of cosmetic dermatology services worldwide, involving a diverse range of providers. Patients presenting with cosmetic concerns should be thoroughly assessed and require meticulous attention because subtle, unexpected clinical cues might necessitate the application of dermatologic expertise. In this study, we present a case series involving patients who sought cosmetic care at an academic cosmetic dermatology center, revealing subsequent diagnoses of significant medical conditions.

Combining photothermal and chemotherapy using single nanoplatform is an emerging direction in cancer nanomedicine. Herein, a magnetic field (MF) induced combination of chemo/photothermal therapy is demonstrated using FeO@mSiO@Au core@shell@satellites nanoparticles (NPs) loaded with chemotherapeutic drug doxorubicin (DOX), both and An application of an external MF to the NPs dispersion causes magnetophoretic movement and aggregation of the NPs. While the synthesized NPs only slightly absorb light at ∼800 nm, their aggregation results in a significant near infrared (NIR) absorption associated with plasmon resonance coupling between the Au satellites in the NPs aggregates.

Photodynamic therapy is an "old" strategy for cancer therapy featuring clinical safety and rapid working, but suitable photosensitizers for colorectal cancer therapy remain lacking. This study synthesized a novel photosensitizer termed Ce6-GFFY based on a self-assembling peptide GFFY and a photo-responsive molecule chlorin e6 (Ce6). Ce6-GFFY forms macroparticles with a diameter of ∼160 nm and possesses a half-life of 10 h, as well as an ideal tumor-targeting ability in mouse models.

We report herein a facile synthesis, characterization, and the electron transfer reaction of a novel light-harvesting material composed of laser-induced graphene (LIG) functionalized with the photoactive 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(4-trimethylammoniophenyl)porphyrin tetra(-toluenesulfonate) dye (TTMAPP). LIG was easily fabricated on the surface of a polyimide sheet using VersaLASER 3.6 (VLS 3.

Recent advances in Light Emitting Diode (LED) technology have enabled a more affordable high frame rate photoacoustic imaging (PA) alternative to traditional laser-based PA systems that are costly and have slow pulse repetition rate. However, a major disadvantage with LEDs is the low energy outputs that do not produce high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) PA images. There have been recent advancements in integrating deep learning methodologies aimed to address the challenge of improving SNR in LED-PA images, yet comprehensive evaluations across varied datasets and architectures are lacking.
