Flexibility within the program allows for the acquisition of fundamental working knowledge in all subspecialties of dermatology. All residents are taught a scholarly approach to patient care, aimed at integrating clinicopathologic observation with an understanding of the basic pathophysiologic processes of normal and abnormal skin. Penn’s Residency Program consists of conferences, seminars, clinical rotations, research, and an opportunity to participate in the teaching of medical students. An extensive introduction into the department and the William D. James, M.D. Director of Residency Program clinic/patient care service is given to first-year residents. A distinguished clinical faculty and research faculty, coupled with the clinical and laboratory facilities, provides residents with comprehensive training. An appreciation of and participation in the investigative process is an integral part of our residency. Graduates frequently earn clinical or basic science fellowship appointments at universities across the country. Examples of these include: pediatric dermatology, dermatopathology, dermatologic surgery, dermatoepidemiology, postdoctoral and Clinical Educator fellowships. Additional post graduate training has occurred at the NIH and CDC. Graduates of our program populate the faculty at Harvard, Penn, Johns Hopkins, MD Anderson, Dartmouth, Penn State, Washington University, and the Universities of Washington, Pittsburgh, Vermont, South Carolina, Massachusetts, Wisconsin, and the University of California San Francisco.

  • Surgical Treatment Options for Lower Eyelid Aging Joe Niamtu III, DMD
    COSMETIC TECHNIQUE Surgical Treatment Options for Lower Eyelid Aging Joe Niamtu III, DMD The lower eyelid and associated anatomy represent a complex structure that is key in facial aging and rejuvenation. There are numerous ways to address this region and some of the more common treat- ment options are discussed in this article. A review is presented of the diagnosis and popular treatment options to address the most common aspects of eyelid aging. The author has performed cosmetic lower eyelid surgery using transconjunctival blepharoplasty with skin resurfacing for the past 12 years, with pleasing results and low complications. Lower eyelid rejuvenation is one of the most commonly requested procedures in a cosmetic surgery practice. A firm understanding of the complex anatomy of this region is paramount to successful treatment. Although many methods exist for addressing this region, some techniques are more prone to postoperative complications. The author has had continued success with hundreds of patients by performing transconjunctival lower eyelid blepharoplasty with CO2 laser resurfacing, chemicalCOS peels, or skin-pinch DERM procedures.

Case Report During a routine checkup, a 10-year-old girl had noticeably different colors in her irises and had large hyper- pigmented spots on her skin. According to her mother, both irises were blue during the child’s first month of life; however, in the following months, the left iris remained blue while the right darkened until reaching its defini- tive brown color by 10 months of age. During her second year of life, two spots appeared on the child’s back that were darker brown than her normal skin, which progressively spread towards the front.

Abstract Alopecia is a hair follicular disorder affecting more than half of the world’s population. Androgenetic Alopecia (AGA) is the most common subtype of alopecia that affects over 50% of men aged over 40 and 75% of women aged over 65. Low-level Light therapy (Laser or LED) is a new technique for stimulating hair growth in men and women that has recently been approved by the US food and drug administration. It is assumed to stimulate anagen phase re-entry in telogen hair follicles, prolong the duration of anagen phase, increase rates of proliferation in active anagen hair follicles and prevent premature catagen development.

    SKIN & LASER SURGERY CENTER, P.C. AMIR A. BAJOGHLI, M.D. Fellow, American Academy of Dermatology Diplomate, American Board of Dermatology and Internal Medicine MOHS Micrographic Surgery • Laser Cutaneous Surgery Patient Name: _____________________________DOB: ______ _____ Date: ____________ BLEPHAROPLASTY CONSENT FORM INSTRUCTIONS The following consent form contains information to inform you regarding blepharosplasty surgery, as well as its risks and alternative treatment. Please carefully read each page and sign the consent for surgery, as proposed by your surgeon. WHAT IS “BLEPHAROPLASTY”? Blepharoplasty is a cosmetic surgical procedure performed to remove excess skin and muscle from both the upper and lower eyelids, along with underlying fatty tissue. Blepharoplasty can help improve vision in older patients who have hooding of their upper eyelids, thus improving drooping skin and sagging. For many Asian patients lacking a crease in the eyelids; it can add an upper eyelid crease, however it will not erase evidence of one’s racial or ethnic heritage. Blepharoplasty should not be used as a method to remove wrinkles as it will not eliminate “crow’s feet” or other wrinkles surrounding the eyes, nor will it erase dark circles or lift drooping eyebrows. Blepharoplasty surgery is customized to fit every patient’s needs. This procedure can be performed alone, involving the upper, lower, or both eyelid regions, or in conjunction with other surgical procedures of the eye, face, brow, or nose. Although eyelid surgery cannot stop the aging process it can however, diminish the look of loose and sagging skin in the eyelid region. ALTERNATIVE TREAMENTS Alternative approaches to surgery can help to manage the appearance of loose and/or sagging skin within the eye region.
