Purpose: The present study was aimed at evaluating the efficacy of a cosmetic product in improving the appearance of periocular skin.
Patients And Methods: An open-label study on 40 female subjects showing clinical signs of skin aging in the periocular area (including bags under the eye and dark circles) was conducted. At day 0 and day 28 the bags under eye volume, dark circles color, skin texture, skin moisturization, skin elasticity, and skin radiance were measured. The instrumental measurements were integrated by clinical analysis carried out by a board-certified dermatologist and by a self-assessment questionnaire carried out by each subject participating in the study.
Results: After 28 days of product use the volume of the bags under the eye was decreased by 6.8% (p = 0.005), the dark circle color red and blue component improved by 7.1% (p = 0.001) and 4.0% (p = 0.001), respectively, wrinkle depth and skin roughness decreased by 15.8% (p = 0.001) and 6.3% (p = 0.011), respectively, skin moisturization increased by 11.7% (p = 0.000), the skin distensibility decreased by 8.9% (p = 0.000), the overall skin elasticity increased by 10.4% (p = 0.000), and the skin radiance increased by 16.3% (p = 0.000). The instrumental measured effects were also confirmed by the clinical analysis of the dermatologist and the self-assessment questionnaire output.
Conclusion: Conclusions: our results suggest that the test product is effective for periocular skin aesthetics (reduction of imperfections undermining the periocular area) and wellness.

Loss of periocular skin due to cancer, trauma, or surgery is a major reconstructive challenge; resultant tissue contracture can cause eyelid malposition with poor functional and aesthetic outcomes. We describe the successful use of cryopreserved umbilical cord amniotic membrane as a wound covering and scaffold for periorbital anterior lamellar defects. This is a retrospective case series of 4 patients (mean 21 years, range 9-30 years, 3 male) who underwent periocular reconstruction with umbilical cord amniotic membrane of 9 different sites.

Background And Objective: Although generally low-risk, hyaluronic acid (HA) dermal fillers can lead to late-onset edema, particularly in the periocular region. This condition typically manifests three to four months post-injection and requires specialized management, usually with hyaluronidase. However, increased use of hyaluronidase has resulted in instances of post-hyaluronidase syndrome, leading to unaesthetic outcomes.
