TREATMENT OF SCARS INTRODUCTION TO RSM AESTHETICS 9 Over the last 100 years, life expectancy in the developed world has increased by 25-30 years. Not only do people live longer, they also feel younger. Feeling younger, it is natural to want to look younger for longer. Enormous advances in the field of aesthetic and cosmetic medicine & surgery mean that much is therapeutically possible now that, not long ago, would have existed only in the realm of science fiction. For these reasons, aesthetics has become the most rapidly expanding area of medicine, and it has grasped the imagination of the general public in an unprecedented way. CRC Press-Taylor & Francis Group, each year, make an immense contribution to the canon of cosmetic medical literature by their publication of major works in the field. In recent years, international authors, drawn from all of the relevant medical and surgical disciplines, have produced a number of fascinating, informative and authoritative texts. A selection of chapters from these recent books are presented here. I hope you will enjoy reading these taster chapters as much as I have. Here indeed science meets art. Christopher Rowland Payne 149 Harley Street, London W1 January 2017 Consultant Dermatologist to The London Clinic Formerly Professeur Universitaire, Université de Paris-Creteil Founding Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology Past President & Past Sec-Gen of the European Society for Cosmetic & Aesthetic Dermatology This FreeBook was put together to mark the RSM Aesthetics 9 meeting, the 9th international multidisciplinary annual meeting, covering a range of aesthetic subjects. Melasma and chloasma are common skin conditions, and chemical peels are often avoided due to their potential to turn into hyper-pigmentation. Chapter 1 “Treating melasma, chloasma, and postinflammatory hyperpigmentation” from Textbook of Chemical Peels considers the use of the Easy TCA peels and gives advice about decision making during the course of melasma treatment. Hydroxyacids are used widely as cosmetic and dermatologic ingredients. Chapter 2 “Hydroxyacids” from Cosmeceuticals and Active Cosmeceuticals considers the use and effects of hyroxyacids as well as safety precautions. CRC PRESS 3 CRCPRESS.COM INTRODUCTION TO RSM AESTHETICS 9 Chapter 3 “Platelet-rich plasma and stem cells” is taken from the The Alopecias and covers the use of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and stem cells to treat alopecia. PRP is an alternative for those who cannot use other treatments, while biological cellular therapy may be a safe and effective paradigm in hair restoration. Chapter 4 “Cosmetic botulinum toxin treatment” is taken from Cosmetic Medicine & Surgery. Botulinum can benefit patients in a number of ways; this chapter looks at M-M BTX and the advantages of precise placement mini-dose injections. Fillers are frequently used in aesthetic medicine, and despite all precautions being taken, adverse effects may occur, which can be catastrophic for the affected person. Chapter 5, “Complication of fillers”, from Cosmetic Medicine & Surgery covers the adverse effects, immediate, late, or delayed for different fillers and the importance of initiating treatment as soon as possible. Chapter 6 “Surgical Scar revision, Dermabrasion, and Other Physical Treatments” is taken from Mohs and Cutaneous Surgery and deals with revisions of facial scars. Primarily dealt with by Mohs and dermatological surgeons, revisions need to be efficiently evaluated and managed to ensure the maximum improvement to the scar. Scarring can be a problematic side-effect of traumas – such as burns – of acne and of medical procedures. Chapter 7 “Treatment of Scars” from Lasers and Energy Devices for the Skin describes evidence that the combined use of Pulsed Dye Lasers (PDLs) and dyspigmentation treatments could reduce the symptoms of scarring in both keloids and hypertrophics scars, and that while early treatment is most effective it may be possible to reduce scarring several months after formation.

The standard recommendations for treatment often mention only the topical applications tretinoin, hydroquinone, fluorinated corticosteroids, sun protection, and tyrosinase inhibitors; chemical peels are considered as a last resort because of their potential to turn melasma into postinflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH). Conventional peels require conscientious prepeel preparation to avoid this danger.
