비후성흉터 Hypertrophic Scar

[OBJECTIVE] Scar revision is 1 of the basic surgery in the field of plastic and reconstructive surgery. The classic treatment of the scar is excision scarless tissue, wide undermining and suture by planes. This method has had unsatisfying r…

[BACKGROUND] Both keloid and hypertrophic scars are common benign skin lesions manifested by hyperplasia of fibroblasts. Clinically, this will not only have physiological effects on patients, but also cause psychological damage. However, th…

Keloid is a type of unusually raised scar. Botulinum toxin A (BTX-A) has a great application potential in keloids treatment. Here, we investigated the functional role of BTX-A in keloids. We separated keloid tissues and normal skin tissues …

Scars can lead to aesthetic and functional impairments. The treatment of scars requires meticulous planning and an individually adapted therapeutic strategy. A conceptual algorithm for scar treatment makes everyday clinical work easier for …

Revision surgery after gender-affirming genitoplasty is becoming more and more common as more patients gain access to surgical treatment. The complexity of genitoplasty and extensive dissection of delicate tissues predisposes patients to ne…

[BACKGROUND] The effect of Botulinum toxin type A (BTX-A) in treating or preventing a hypertrophic scar (HS) had been reported in clinical studies. However, the dose-effect relationship remains unclear. [OBJECTIVE] To study the dose-effect…

[OBJECTIVE] Various skin incision methods have been reported for reduction mammoplasty and mastopexy. This report describes a new incision method that may improve on conventional methods, particularly with respect to prevention of hypertrop…

[BACKGROUND] Hypertrophic scar is a common complication in would healing process, and how to effectively prevent and treat it has been a hot and difficult research issue. Previous studies have showed that botulinum toxin type A (BTA) has ef…

Gigantomastia has been described as excessive hypertrophy of the female breast, however, there is controversy about the weight of the excised tissue. In the literature, resected tissue amount between 1,000 g and 2,000 g per breast is report…

There is no uniform treatment for pathological scars, including keloids and hypertrophic scars, in clinic currently. Previously, multiple randomized controlled trials have examined the clinical efficacy of different treatments. Nonetheless,…

Since we first described the rationale for the use of hydrocolloid dressings to treat keloids and hypertrophic scars, this technique has been used as an occlusive therapy alternative to the use of silicone sheets in our outpatient clinic. I…

[AIM OF THE STUDY] The psychological benefits of successful surgery for prominent ears have been emphasised. However, there are few comprehensive reports in the literature on the incidence of complications. The aim of this retrospective stu…

[BACKGROUND] The central mound technique offers a relatively less common approach for breast reduction. This study evaluated the expected safety and efficacy outcomes using this technique in a large patient series. [METHODS] A retrospectiv…

[BACKGROUND] Both mesenchymal stem cell-conditioned medium (MSC CM) and Botox have demonstrated therapeutic effects for hypertrophic scar (HS). It is unclear whether a synergistic effect occurs when these treatments are used in combination.…

[BACKGROUND] Although Botulinum Toxin Type A (BTXA) has been applied to scar prevention and treatment, the mechanisms still require further exploration. [OBJECTIVE] To investigate the effects of BTXA on microvessels in the hypertrophic sca…

Objective evidence for the role of inhibition of collagen cross-linking in human scar using a nontoxic topical inhibitor, 1,4-diaminobutane (1,4 DAB), in patients with scars at risk for hypertrophic scar formation is presented. The authors …

[PURPOSE] Xanthelasma palpebrarum manifests as a yellowish placoid on the medial aspect of the upper eyelids, often in middle and old age. Aggravated lateral hooding of the eyelid might cause a deformity with conventional surgery, which app…

Hypertrophic scar is a dermal fibroproliferative disease characterized by the overproduction and deposition of extracellular matrix, and the hyperproliferation and enhanced angiogenesis of fibroblasts, along with their enhanced differentiat…
