Hair removal is thought to reduce the risk of surgical site infections. Three methods of hair removal are used: shaving, clipping and chemical depilation. Aims and objectives: This study aimed to evaluate shaving and depilatory cream for hair removal in inguinal hernia sur- gical site preparation and to compare incidence of surgical site infection, safety, time needed and cost of hair removal. Material and methods: The study was a prospective & comparative study carried out on 100 patients undergoing in- guinal hernia surgical repair at Command Hospital (WC), Chandimandir. Patients were randomized into two groups, i.e., razor shaving group and depilatory cream group. Results: 9 patients (9%) had surgical site infection including 1(2%) in depilatory cream group and 8(16%) in razor group. Infection was significantly associated with razor than depilatory cream.

  • A Method to Improve the Efficacy of Topical Eflornithine Hydrochloride Cream
    HHS Public Access Author manuscript Author ManuscriptAuthor Manuscript Author Drug Deliv Manuscript Author . Author manuscript; Manuscript Author available in PMC 2017 June 01. Published in final edited form as: Drug Deliv. 2016 June ; 23(5): 1495–1501. doi:10.3109/10717544.2014.951746. A method to improve the efficacy of topical eflornithine hydrochloride cream Amit Kumar1, Youssef W. Naguib1, Yan-chun Shi2, and Zhengrong Cui1,2,* 1The University of Texas at Austin, College of Pharmacy, Pharmaceutics Division, Austin, TX 78712 2Inner Mongolia Medical University, Research Center of Molecular Biology, Hohhot, Inner Mongolia, China Abstract Context—Facial hirsutism is a cosmetic concern for women and can lead to significant anxiety and lack of self-esteem. Eflornithine cream is indicated for the treatment of facial hirsutism. However, limited success rate and overall patient’s satisfaction, even with a long-term and high frequency application, leave room for improvement. Objective—The objective of this study is to test the effect of microneedle treatment on the in vitro skin permeation and the in vivo efficacy of eflornithine cream in a mouse model. Materials and method—In vitro permeation study of eflornithine was performed using Franz diffusion cell. In vivo efficacy study was performed in a mouse model by monitoring the re-growth of hair in the lower dorsal skin of mice after the eflornithine cream was applied onto an area pretreated with microneedles. The skin and the hair follicles in the treated area were also examined histologically. Results and discussion—The hair growth inhibitory activity of eflornithine was significantly enhanced when the eflornithine cream was applied onto a mouse skin area pretreated with microneedles, most likely because the micropores created by microneedles allowed the permeation of eflornithine into the skin, as confirmed in an in vitro permeation study.

  • CLINICAL EVALUATION of HANDHELD SELF-TREATMENT DEVICE for HAIR REMOVAL James M
    788 COPYRIGHT © 2007 JOURNAL OF DRUGS IN DERMATOLOGY CLINICAL EVALUATION OF HANDHELD SELF-TREATMENT DEVICE FOR HAIR REMOVAL James M. Spencer MD Spencer Dermatology and Skin Surgery, St. Petersburg, FL Abstract Background and Objectives: Laser and light-based methods for hair removal, though effective, are expensive and may be associated with adverse effects. Our objective was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a thermal, handheld self-treat- ment device (no!no!™ Thermicon™, Radiancy Inc, Orangeburg, NY) for removing unwanted hair. Methods: Twelve of the 20 enrolled subjects underwent 6 supervised and 6 unsupervised self-treatments of their lower legs and umbilicus-bikini areas at twice-weekly intervals for 6 weeks. Follow-up visits were scheduled at 2, 6, and 12 weeks after the final treatment. Results were evaluated by pretreatment, post-treatment, and follow-up hair counts. Results: For legs, the median clearance percentages were 48% post-treatment and 43.5% at 12 weeks. For the umbili- cus-bikini area, the median clearance percentage was 15.0 % at 12 weeks. Conclusions: The efficacy and safety of the no!no! Thermicon device for hair removal of the legs appear to be compa- rable to those of laser devices. Introduction a thermal mechanism.

  • Use of Chemical Depilatory Agents on Laboratory Animals the University of Texas at Austin Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee
    Guidelines for the Use of Chemical Depilatory Agents on Laboratory Animals The University of Texas at Austin Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee These guidelines have been written to assist faculty, staff, and students in performing vertebrate animal procedures in a humane manner and complying with pertinent regulatory requirements. Under some circumstances deviations from these procedures may be indicated but such variances must be approved in advance by the IACUC. This document provides information to researchers who use chemical depilatory agents in order to remove hair on animals used for research, teaching, or other purposes at the University of Texas at Austin. It is organized into three sections: Section A – Background Information Section B – Use of Chemical Depilatory Agents Section C – References and Acknowledgements Section A – Background Information Chemical depilatory agents (e.g. Nair, Veet, etc.) may be used on animals designated for IACUC approved procedures, including but not limited to surgery, imaging, blood collection, or routine cleaning of cranial implants. An advantage of using a depilatory is its ease of use in areas that are difficult to shave; however, researchers should take precautions when using depilatories in order to ensure the health and well-being of the animal. Application of depilatories should be in accordance with the manufacturer’s directives. Section B – Use of Chemical Depilatory Agents Appropriate hair removal is often best performed when the animal is anesthetized, although that is not always possible. In the instance that the animal cannot be anesthetized, it should be properly restrained. The depilatory may be applied directly to the animal’s hair/fur, or the researcher may shave or clip the area of interest prior to application.

  • Original Article Evaluation of Two Methods of Preoperative Hair
    Original Article Evaluation of two methods of preoperative hair removal and their relationship to postoperative wound infection Adewale O. Adisa, Olukayode O. Lawal, Olusanya Adejuyigbe Department of Surgery, Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, Nigeria Abstract Introduction: When a surgical operation is to be conducted through a hair bearing part of the body, hair removal is often performed. This study aimed to evaluate the relationship of two methods of preoperative hair removal to postoperative wound infection in a developing country where razor shaving is very popular. Methodology: Consecutive consenting patients scheduled to have such operations were randomized into two groups. One group had hair removal by shaving with a razor blade while the other had hair removed by depilatory cream. Adequacy of hair removal and presence of skin injuries and/or reactions were noted preoperatively. Details of the procedures were recorded and patients were then assessed for postoperative wound infection. Results: A total of 165 patients were studied. Of the 79 patients who had hair removal by depilatory cream, hair was completely removed in 70 (88.6%) compared to 53 (61.6%) of the 86 patients who had razor hair shaving (p < 0.0001). Skin injuries were noted in 24 (27.9%) of the razor group and 3 (3.8%) of patients who had depilatory cream, (p = 0.001). Thirteen patients (7.9%) had postoperative wound infection including 2 (2.5%) in the depilatory cream group and 11 (12.8%) of the razor group. A significant association was found between preoperative skin injuries and postoperative wound infections. Conclusion: Preoperative hair removal with razor shaving predisposes to skin injuries which in turn significantly influence postoperative wound infection rates.
