BACKGROUND
Rosacea is a common skin condition, but the currently available treatments are not satisfactory.
OBJECTIVE
We wanted to assess the efficacy and safety of photopneumatic therapy (PPx), which delivers pneumatic energy and broadband light (400~1,200 nm), for the treatment of erythematotelangiectatic rosacea.
METHODS
Twenty two patients with erythematotelangiectatic rosacea were treated 3~5 times with PPx. Three independent dermatologists evaluated the efficacy of PPx by comparing the photographs taken before and after treatment. Patient self-assessment was also done by interviews.
RESULTS
The photographic assessment by the dermatologists of the improvement showed that >50% improvement occurred in 64% (14/22) of the patients. The specific categories of improvement were as follows: poor (<25% improvement), 1 patient; fair (2550% improvement), 7 patients; good (5075% improvement), 11 patients; and excellent (>75% improvement), 3 patients. Based on the patients' self-assessment, 20 patients (91%) acknowledged an improvement.
CONCLUSION
PPx is an effective and safe treatment option for erythematotelangiectatic rosacea.
背景
酒渣鼻是一种常见的皮肤疾病，但目前可用的治疗方法并不令人满意。
目的
我们旨在评估光气动疗法（PPx）治疗红斑毛细血管扩张型酒渣鼻的疗效和安全性，该疗法可传递气动能量和宽带光（400~1200nm）。
方法
22例红斑毛细血管扩张型酒渣鼻患者接受3~5次PPx治疗。三位独立的皮肤科医生通过比较治疗前后拍摄的照片来评估PPx的疗效。还通过访谈进行患者自我评估。
结果
皮肤科医生对改善情况的照片评估显示，64%（14/22）的患者改善率>50%。具体改善类别如下：差（改善率<25%），1例患者；一般（改善率25%50%），7例患者；良好（改善率50%75%），11例患者；优秀（改善率>75%），3例患者。根据患者的自我评估，20例患者（91%）承认有改善。
结论
PPx是治疗红斑毛细血管扩张型酒渣鼻的一种有效且安全的治疗选择。
