Filter by:The study aims to compare the safety and efficacy of two different strengths of Rapamycin cream, topical and placebo over 26 weeks in the treatment of facial angiofibroma (FA) associated with Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (TSC).
In this study, the investigators will evaluate the clinical usefulness of 3 dimensional double echo steady state MRI (3D-DESS MRI) for functional preservation of the facial nerve during parotidectomy. Preoperative 3D-DESS MRI imaging can provide information about the anatomical relationship between the tumor and the facial nerve in the parotid gland. Because the risk of postoperative facial weakness is relatively high in the deep-seated parotid tumors, the investigators will exclude the patients with the superficial parotid tumors (determined by preoperative CT or US) and only include the patients with deep seated parotid tumors in this trial. The main outcome of our study is the incidence of immediate postoperative facial weakness, and the secondary outcome is the incidence of facial weakness at postoperative 6 months.
The objective of this study is to quantify the psychological and emotional impact of comprehensive aesthetic treatment with a portfolio of Allergan products by measuring the change in participant's satisfaction with facial appearance from baseline to the final study visit.
The purpose of the study is to compare cosmetic outcomes of simple facial lacerations in children repaired with Dermabond (skin glue) compared with Dermabond (skin glue) with underlying steristrips (skin adhesive strips).
Respiratory function, phonation and facial expressivity are related to emotional reaction through neurophysiological process. Specific emotional respiratory, vocal and facial patterns had been described in literature. Respiratory cycles variation is modulated by stimulus arousal. Furthermore, inspiratory-to-expiratory time ratio in abdominal area is modulated by emotional valence. Inextricably linked to respiration, vocal production depends on emotional arousal and valence too. According to embodied cognition, the effector pattern of an emotion initiates the corresponding subjective activation. Facial recognition is influenced by automatic mimicry and facial feedback. Most facial feedback studies included patients with diplegia but few studies dealt with emotional perception in Bell's palsy. The aim of the present study is to understand production and perception of emotion in Bell's palsy with respiratory, vocal and facial markers. What impact lack of mimicry have on physiological emotional reaction in Bell's palsy? To this end, prospective monocentric study will be conducted with 60 patients with Bell's Palsy from grade II to grade VI of House & Brackmann's scale. During production and perception of vocal and facial expression, respiratory rate and thoraco-abdominal movements will be analyzed. The investigators hypothesize that severity of facial deficit is negatively correlated with variation of respiratory cycles, lower segmental and suprasegmental changes during vocal expression, and lower facial perception (congruency and arousal).
Inadequate recovery from Bell's palsy is not uncommon and as consequence, physical and social impairment are exist in these patients. The medical options for chronic condition of Bell's palsy are insufficient. Low-level laser therapy has shown a favorable prognosis in the regeneration of peripheral nerves. Moreover, laser acupuncture therapy (LAT) become widely used method to stimulate acupuncture points, but its efficacy as treatment method for Bell's palsy and during the chronic stage is unclear.
This study will assess the efficacy and tolerability of two topical regimens (containing cosmetic human fibroblast-derived, physiologically-balanced growth factor combination products (HULK and TNS Essential Serum)
mRDX-02-17 is a device for facial beauty care composed of hyaluronic acid in a concentration of 1.5% (p/v), as a functional ingredient, recommended for the correction and treatment of wrinkles and dermal depressions. The primary hypothesis of this clinical investigation is that, at 30 days after the 60 days of treatment with mRDX-02-17, the mean WSRS score assessed by the investigator will decrease with at least 0.5 points compared to baseline evaluation.
Few studies have assessed the effects of Triphala and Rubia Cordifolia from a skin biophysical perspective. Here, we aim to understand how these herbs can modulate the skin's barrier properties and the gut microbiome.
The main objective of this study is to investigate efficacy and safety of injecting botulinum toxin towards the sphenopalatine ganglion using MultiGuide in patients with persistent idiopathic facial pain
