Filter by:The purpose of the study is to assess the safety and efficacy of Arazlo Lotion (Tazarotene 0.045% Lotion) for treatment of postinflammatory erythema and postinflammatory hyperpigmentation in subjects with acne.
Patients will be randomized either to receive standard daily dressing or hydrocolloid dressing using a randomization generator. After closing the wound with the sutures,the scar will be covered by a hydrocolloid dressing, which will be left in place for 7 days(Experimental) or the standard dressing (Control) that will be covered with petrolatum jelly and bandaging during this time period, which has to be re-applied daily. Patients and dermatologic surgeons will then complete surveys 7 days, 30 days, and 90 days after surgery to evaluate the cosmetic appearance of these scars.
Case control study of patients with and without restenosis to demonstrate the link between in-stent restenosis and an excessive skin healing. Patients will undergo skin biopsy and blood sample tests to search for a relationship between both processes and for the identification of biomarkers and therapeutic targets.
Skin scarring (fibrosis) is a common complication in the wound healing process and remains a therapeutic challenge. Scar formation often occurs following injury to the skin such as surgery, trauma, and burns. The goal of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of visible red light as a modality to reduce skin scarring after mini-facelift surgery. Based on laboratory data, light emitting diode-red light (LED-RL) phototherapy may lessen post-surgical skin fibrosis clinically.
The aim of this study is to compare negative pressure wound therapy to traditional care after split-thickness skin grafting in patients aged over 18.
This is a prospective, randomized pilot study of patients who will undergo either early or late incisional laser therapy after breast reduction surgery to alleviate scar burden at NYU Langone Medical Center. The purpose of this study is to see how well carbon dioxide (CO2) laser therapy works at preventing scar formation after surgery.CO2 laser therapy is currently being used by dermatologists and plastic surgeons to help with scarring after acne and to rejuvenate the face; its benefits are now being explored by medical professionals in dermatology and cosmetic surgery to prevent scarring after surgery.
The primary objective of Part A is to compare the change in elasticity measurements at baseline and at 3 months between subjects who have had a resurfacing or tightening procedure and those who have not. The secondary objective for Part A is to develop baseline elasticity scores for ages 18-35, 36-50, and 51-65 and for Fitzpatrick skin types I-II, III-IV, and V-VI. The primary objective of Part B is to compare the age of the scar and surrounding tissue with the elasticity measurements.
