“…It was observed that patients with higher level of incontinence had worse results than the milder ones. This result reinforces the idea of Cunha et al ., suggesting CO2 laser not only as a treatment for urogenital prolapse UI, but also as prevention of such conditions.…”

“…The severity of SD, for example, can predict the degree of abdominal adhesions at the time of re‐cesarean delivery, as well as the severity of low back pain in late pregnancy 18 . It has also been linked to anal sphincter damage after caesarean delivery, 19 and it has been suggested that urogenital prolapse and urinary incontinence may be related to the presence of SD 20 .

BackgroundStriae Distensae (SD) is a common dermatological lesion. The mechanism of formation is unclear, the prevailing theory is mechanical pulling of the skin and hormonal changes. Traditional SD treatment methods include topical drugs, photoelectric therapy, stripping and others, but each has limitations. Stromal vascular fraction gel (SVF‐gel) is a filler physically prepared from granular fat, enriched with adipose‐derived stem cells (ADSCs) and extracellular matrix (ECM). A good effect in the treatment of neck lines, wounds, acne, and other aspects. SD formation and treatment goals are comparable to those of neck lines. In this study, SVF‐gel filling will be used to treat mature SD, and its effectiveness and safety will be discussed in detail.MethodsFrom December 2019 to June 2022, recruit patients who want to treat SD caused by obesity or pregnancy among those who have “autologous fat aspiration” to change their body shape. Preoperatively, the area to be treated for SD was marked, autologous fat aspiration was performed, and the aspirated fat was prepared as SVF‐gel and filled into the preoperatively marked SD. All patients had preoperative and postoperative follow‐up with planar photographs and VISIA skin analyzer photographs to assess surgical results and safety from subjective and objective perspectives.ResultsA total of 36 patients were enrolled, with 31 of them successfully followed up on. The mean Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale (GAIS) score six months after surgery was 1.87 ± 0.03. At six months postoperatively, the overall patient satisfaction rate was 90%. The depth, area, and color of SD improved six months after surgery, and no serious complications occurred in any of the patients.ConclusionsSVF‐gel is a safe and effective method of improving mature SD and can be used as a clinical treatment option.

“…Some studies in the literature report a correlation between striae and their severity, and prolapse of the pelvic organs ( 86 , 87 ), and obstetric lesions of the anal sphincter ( 88 ). However, it is unclear whether SMs can generally be considered predictive clinical markers of urogenital dystopia ( 89 ). These data highlight the possible seriousness of the structural alteration that can be induced by abdominal SMs.…”

Stretch marks: a visible expression of connective’s involvement in autism spectrum disorders

et al. 2023

In autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) in the pediatric population, skin manifestations are generally attributable to the concomitance of allergic forms or to accidental, self-inflicted or abusive lesions. However, clinical evidence has highlighted the presence of an increasing number of abdominal stretch marks, probably caused by the increase in the number of obesity cases in the pediatric population, in general, and therefore also among children with ASD. Stretch marks are often attributed to obesity, as they have an incidence of more than 50% in obese individuals. In the first part of this article we hypothesized that in addition to obesity there are other factors, such as a structural alteration on the skin in people with ASD, which can contribute/aggravate the phenomenon of stretch marks. Despite the high frequency with which stretch marks are found in children with ASD, this aspect has never been studied, the structure of the skin of children with ASD is not known. Furthermore, it is not known whether this structure is different from that of subjects without ASD. In the second part of the article, we hypothesized the mechanisms of the negative impact of simple abdominal stretch marks on the symptomatic picture of children with ASD. The presence of stretch marks, altered tactile perception, altered sensitivity to clothing fabrics can be a combination that influences development and determines negative consequences in the neurological picture of a child with ASD, as it is already known that the altered sensory perception in children with ASD contributes to the deterioration of social behavior. Furthermore, the presence of stretch marks may play a role in the postural and motor defects of children with ASD.
