Xanthelasma palpebrarum is the most common type of xanthoma affecting the eyelids. It is characterized by asymptomatic soft yellowish macules, papules, or plaques over the upper and lower eyelids. Many treatments are available for management of xanthelasma palpebrarum, the most commonly used include surgical excision, ablative CO or erbium lasers, nonablative Q-switched Nd:YAG laser, trichloroacetic acid peeling, and radiofrequency ablation. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of RF ablation in the treatment of xanthelasma palpebrarum, with D.A.S. Medical portable device (Technolux, Italia), a radiofrequency tool working with long-wave plasma energy and without anesthesia. Twenty patients, 15 female and 5 male, affected by xanthelasma palpebrarum, were enrolled for long-wave plasma radiofrequency ablation treatment. The treatment consisted of 3/4 sessions that were carried out at intervals of 30 days. Treatments were well tolerated by all patients with no adverse effects and optimal aesthetic results. The procedure is very fast and can be performed without anesthesia because of the low and tolerable pain stimulation. Long-wave plasma radiofrequency ablation is an effective option for treatment of xanthelasma palpebrarum and adds an additional tool to the increasing list of medical devices for aesthetic treatments.
眼睑黄色瘤是最常见的影响眼睑的黄瘤类型。它的特征是在上眼睑和下眼睑出现无症状的软黄色斑、丘疹或斑块。有许多治疗方法可用于眼睑黄色瘤的治疗,最常用的包括手术切除、CO 或铒激光消融、非消融 Q 开关 Nd:YAG 激光、三氯乙酸剥脱和射频消融。本研究旨在评估 D.A.S. Medical 便携式设备(意大利 Technolux)的射频消融在治疗眼睑黄色瘤中的有效性,该设备是一种使用长波等离子体能量且无需麻醉的射频工具。20 名患有眼睑黄色瘤的女性和 5 名男性患者入组接受长波等离子体射频消融治疗。治疗包括 3/4 次疗程,间隔 30 天进行。所有患者均能很好地耐受治疗,无不良反应,且获得了理想的美学效果。该过程非常快速,由于疼痛刺激轻微且可耐受,因此可以在无需麻醉的情况下进行。长波等离子体射频消融是治疗眼睑黄色瘤的有效选择,为日益增多的美容治疗医疗设备增添了一种新工具。
