摘要

背景:体重大幅下降后,腹部皮肤会永久性拉伸,导致妊娠纹、松弛和真皮变薄。对许多患者来说,腹部整形等手术方法风险太大,因为可能出现并发症、恢复期长且费用高昂。研究目的本试验性研究的目的是使用微聚焦超声波、羟基磷灰石钙和 A 型肉毒杆菌毒素来改善重度减肥后腹部皮肤松弛患者的外观。与传统的外科手术相比,这些治疗方法的组合能在最少的停工期和较低的风险下提供全面的效果。治疗方法我们的团队对四名中国女性患者分别进行了微聚焦超声波、稀释羟基磷灰石钙和 A 型肉毒杆菌毒素的不同组合治疗。第一例和第二例只接受了 810 针微聚焦超声波治疗。第三例患者接受了 850 次微焦超声波治疗,外加 5 毫升稀释的羟基磷灰石钙和 50 单位的 A 型伊可丁毒素(Incobotulinum toxin A)涂抹在左腹部皮肤上;第四例患者接受了 900 次微焦超声波治疗,外加 5 毫升稀释的羟基磷灰石钙和 10 单位的 A 型伊可丁毒素涂抹在左腹部皮肤上。所有四名患者均接受了一次治疗。每次治疗前均拍摄临床照片,并要求两名独立的盲人调查员对 4 周后拍摄的照片进行评估,并与治疗前的照片进行比较。结果:所有四个病例都显示出整体临床改善,根据照片分析,第三和第四个病例的皮肤紧致效果更为显著。数据表明,在微聚焦超声波治疗中加入羟基磷灰石钙和 A 型肉毒杆菌毒素,能产生更佳的腹部年轻化效果。结论:腹部皮肤松弛可通过微聚焦超声波、稀释的羟基磷灰石钙和A型伊可塑毒素三合一疗法进行治疗。

Pilot Study of Microfocused Ultrasound, Incobotulinum Toxin, and Calcium Hydroxyapatite in Triple Therapy for Skin Tightening after Weight Loss
Background: After significant weight loss, the abdominal skin can become permanently stretched, resulting in stretch marks, laxity, and thinning of the dermis. For many patients, surgical methods such as abdominoplasty are too risky due to the potential for complications, the lengthy recovery period, and the high cost. Objective: The purpose of this pilot study was to use microfocused ultrasound, calcium hydroxyapatite, and Incobotulinum toxin A to improve the appearance of patients who were suffering from abdominal skin laxity after heavy weight loss. The combination of these treatments can provide comprehensive results with minimal downtime and lower risk compared to traditional surgical procedures. Methods: Our team treated four female Chinese patients with microfocused ultrasound, diluted calcium hydroxylapatite, and Incobotulinum toxin A with different combinations, respectively. The first and second cases were only treated with 810 shots of microfocused ultrasound. The third case received 850 shots of microfocused ultrasound plus 5 mL of diluted calcium hydroxylapatite and 50 units of Incobotulinum toxin A on the left abdominal skin, and the fourth case was treated with 900 shots of microfocused ultrasound plus 5 mL of diluted calcium hydroxylapatite and 10 units of Incobotulinum toxin A on the left abdominal skin. All four patients received a single treatment session. Clinical photographs were taken before each treatment, and two individual blinded investigators were asked to assess photographs taken after 4 weeks and compare them with the pretreatment photos. Results: All four cases showed an overall clinical improvement, with the third and fourth cases demonstrating more significant skin tightening based on photographic analysis. The data indicate that the inclusion of calcium hydroxylapatite and Incobotulinum toxin A in microfocused ultrasound treatment yields superior results for abdominal rejuvenation. Conclusions: Abdominal skin laxity can be treated with a triple therapy combining microfocused ultrasound, diluted calcium hydroxylapatite, and Incobotulinum toxin A.
