Abstract
AbstractPurposeTo evaluate the efficacy and safety of photothermal bioactivated platelet‐rich plasma for reducing laxity in facial rejuvenation in patients not eligible for other aesthetic treatments due to several comorbidities.MethodsA prospective, nonrandomized study was conducted. Efficacy was assessed through a satisfaction scale and the Facial Laxity Rating Scale. Safety assessments were based on the data of all adverse events and the visual analog pain scale.ResultsSeven patients with a mean age of 51 (standard deviation [SD] 7.46, range 42–63) were included. In six patients (85.7%), the treatment was applied to the face and neck, and in one patient (14.3%), only to the lower half of the face and neck. The physician's perception of laxity decreased, and the procedure was not complex. Patients’ and physician satisfaction increased as the study progressed. Adverse effects were not serious and resolved without sequelae. The patients’ pain perceived during the treatment was mild in most cases.ConclusionThe photothermal bioactivated platelet‐rich plasma injections were a safe and effective treatment for facial laxity in patients not eligible for other procedures, providing good satisfaction.
