“…Die extrinsische Alterung ist mit dem Photoaging gleichzusetzen [3,8,10]. Die geschädigte Haut wird durch Falten, Hauterschlaffung und Pigmentstörungen charakterisiert [21,23] [15].…”

“…Durch Injektionen entsteht meist ein voluminöser Handrücken, der allerdings dem straffen Aussehen der jugendlichen Hand nur ansatzweise entspricht. Topische Verfahren bewirken eine Hautstraffung und Reduktion der Pigmentierungsstörungen, der Volumeneffekt allein durch Neokollagenese ist klinisch meist wenig eindrücklich [3]. Somit ist mit Monotherapien oft nur eine partielle Korrektur erreichbar.…”

“…Somit kann eine Peelingbehandlung nur eine Faltenreduktion bewirken, ohne den subdermalen Volumenverlust zu kompensieren. Als Komplikationen sind besonders hypertrophe Narbenbildung und Pigmentstö-rungen zu erwähnen [3]. Da die Haut des Handrückens deutlich weniger Hautanhangsgebilde als z.…”

“…Da die Haut des Handrückens deutlich weniger Hautanhangsgebilde als z. B. die Gesichtshaut aufweist, ist die Regeneration langsamer und auch häufig unregelmäßig [3,6]. Von chemischen Peelings des Handrückens ist wegen erhöhter Komplikationen abzuraten [6].…”

The appearance of the hand is clearly secondary to its function. Nonetheless, aging changes on the hands are of considerable importance to many patients. Although rejuvenation of the hand has attracted increased interest in plastic surgery recently, the dermatologists have dealt with this problem for a longer time. Successful rejuvenation requires thorough analysis of the underlying pathophysiology. Hand aging is characterized by dermal and subcutaneous volume loss resulting wrinkle formation. Aging is also associated with increased visibility of tendons and veins as well as age spots and precancerous lesions. Hand rejuvenation aims at successfully reversing this three-dimensional process. The majority of treatment options address only partial aspects of the aging process. Topical treatments are the mainstay of therapy as these changes are most obvious. As patients will mainly seek advice from dermatologist, this field requires increased attention.

Treatment of traumatic scars using plasma skin regeneration (PSR) system

et al. 2009

Objectives: Several modalities have been advocated to treat traumatic scars, including surgical techniques and laser resurfacing. Recently, a plasma skin regeneration (PSR) system has been investigated. There are no reports on plasma treatment of traumatic scars. The objective of our study is to evaluate the effectiveness and complications of plasma treatment of traumatic scars in Asian patients. Materials and Methods: Twenty Asian patients with traumatic scars were enrolled in the study. Three treatments were performed at monthly intervals with PSR, using energy settings of 2 to 3J. Patients were seen 1 week after each individual treatment and 3 months after the last treatment. Improvement was determined by patient questionnaires and physician evaluation of digital photographs taken prior to treatment and at 3 months posttreatment. The patients were also evaluated for any side effects from the treatment. Results: Nine of 20 patients showed more than 50% improvement. The average pain score on a 10 point scale was 5.8 AE 1.3 SD and all patients tolerated the treatments. The average re-epithelization time was 7.3 AE 2.8 SD days. Temporary and local hyperpigmentation was observed in four patients and this hyperpigmentation disappeared within 3 months. Hypopigmentation and worsening of scarring were not observed. Conclusions: Plasma treatment is clinically effective and is associated with minimal complications when used to treat traumatic scars in Asian patients. However, deep traumatic scars are resistant to plasma treatment.
