Conclusions Microdermabrasion using a coarse diamond-studded handpiece induces a dermal remodeling cascade similar to that seen in incisional wound healing. Optimization of these molecular effects is likely the result of more aggressive treatment with a more abrasive handpiece.

Recontouring, Resurfacing, and Scar Revision in Skin Cancer ReconstructionEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Residual disfigurement is a common problem for patients who have undergone skin cancer reconstruction. Restoring form and function in these patients is an artistic and technical endeavor. The efficacy of surgical scar revision, dermabrasion, chemical peels, and laser resurfacing is predicated upon the skin's innate ability to regenerate over time in response to mechanical, chemical, and thermal or ablative stresses. The patient and surgeon should be accepting of a process that is often gradual and may proceed in stages. Achieving proficiency with the secondary procedures for improving scars and local flaps may allow the mo...

The surgical challenge of giant circumferential congenital naevi of the extremities: a 13-year follow-up of two casesEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
We present our experience in the management of circumferential giant congenital melanocytic naevi involving the upper limb in one patient and lower limb in another one. They were managed and followed up for 13 years. The lesion regenerated following dermabrasion in the first patient and regenerated following tangential excision and split-thickness skin graft in both patients. Therefore, another approach was used, full-thickness resection of the lesions and reconstruction with dermal regeneration template (Integra™), followed by ultrathin split-thickness skin graft. The last approach resulted in no recurrence du...

Dysplastic nevus syndrome with development of multiple melanomas. A surgical concept for prophylaxisEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
A 58-year-old man presented in 2001 with dysplastic nevus syndrome with at least 300 nevi and about 100 clinically highly atypical nevi. Three melanomas had been excised by a private dermatologist within the past year. We then removed two additional melanomas. Between 2002 and 2003, 117 nevi which were atypical on dermatoscopy were removed; most by horizontal (shave) excision. Adequate clinical and dermatoscopic control was not feasible due to the large number of atypical nevi. In order to reduce the number of nevus cells, we treated test sites with both dermabrasion and split-thickness excision. The latter proved to be mo...

The outcome was then evaluated both qualitatively and quantitatively. The overall response to therapy was better using the combination therapy. Fifty patients (78.1%) experienced a moderate-marked repigmentation response in the combination group compared with 23.4% in the mono-therapy group. The response was significantly higher when using the combination...

This article provides an overview of nasal reconstruction with brief descriptions of subtle nuances involving certain techniques that the authors believe help their overall outcomes. The major aspects of nasal reconstruction are included: lining, support, skin coverage, local nasal flaps, nasolabial flap, and paramedian forehead flap. The controversy of the subunit reconstruction versus defect-only reconstruction is briefly discussed. The authors believe that strictly adhering to one principle or another limits one's options, and the patient will benefit more if one is able to apply a variety of options for each individual...

Treatment of Postdermabrasion Facial Hypertrophic and Keloid Scars with Intralesional 5-Fluorouracil InjectionsEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Abstract Hypertrophic and keloid scarring is a known complication of dermabrasion facial resurfacing, although only a very small fraction of patients experience it. Treatment with intralesional corticosteroid injections and flashed pumped vascular dye laser is recommended in the literature. The treatment of keloid and hypertrophic scars using intralesional 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) injections has been well described, but there is no literature regarding use of the same treatment for postdermabrasion hypertrophic and keloid scars. In this case report, we describe a 67-year-old woman with persistent postdermabrasi...

Eur J Pediatr Surg 2007; 17: 354-361DOI: 10.1055/s-2006-924646AbstractDeep dermal partial-thickness scalds remain one of the most common types of injuries in childhood. Local treatment of those wounds, alternatively described as IIb degree, is still very controversial. Some authors advise conservative treatment of such wounds, pointing to their ability to self-reepithelialise, which is possible but significantly prolonged. Other investigators postulate operative treatment, i.e., tangential necrectomy and split-thickness autologous skin grafting, which may shorten the time of wound healing. Arguments call for contra-argumen...

Abstract Dermabrasion of the periorbital region has been traditionally contraindicated due to the fear of complications. A method for safe dermabrasion of the lateral canthal region is described. Lateral canthal dermabrasion has the demonstrated advantages of being economical and relatively free of pigmentary problems. The results for 25 consecutive cases with a follow-up period of 12 to 16 months have shown good to excellent results in the majority of cases, with 4 cases requiring further revision. The technique is not intended to replace the gold standard, laserbrasion of the periocular region, and is not ...

Chest burns in pre-pubescent girl are commonly seen in paediatric burn units. These patients are at risk of significant long-term problems with scarring and breast development requiring reconstructive surgery many years after the initial burn. Admissions to our unit over a 20-year period were reviewed to determine the frequency of these burns. Patients whose burns required surgical debridement and split skin grafting, and who would now be post-pubertal were included in the study. We attempted to trace and contact these patients and were able to find 13 out of 22 patients, of whom 11 agreed to participate. The mechanism...

The undifferentiated RHPS was grown submerged and formed 1-2 layers of keratinocytes. The differentiated phenotype (D-RHPS) was grown at the air-liquid interface and formed 5-20 cell layers similar to the normal epidermis, including the granular and horny layers.
