Lipoid proteinosis (LP) is a rare autosomal-recessive genodermatosis, characterized by the deposition of amorphous hyaline-like material in different parts of the body, especially the skin and mucous membranes. Disfiguring lesions predominantly affect the facial appearance. No curative therapy and treatment options limited to symptomatic approaches are available. Facial disfigurement in this disease may have a huge negative effect on the patients' psychology and quality of life. With this regard, the patients may benefit very much from the treatments that enhance their cosmetic outlook. We present a 19-year-old female patient with LP who came to us seeking treatment for her facial lesions. She was treated with a combination regimen of fractional carbon dioxide and non-ablative radio frequency with good clinical and aesthetic outcome.
类脂蛋白沉积症(LP)是一种罕见的常染色体隐性遗传性皮肤病,其特征是无定形透明样物质沉积于身体不同部位,尤其是皮肤和黏膜。毁容性损害主要影响面部外观。目前尚无治愈性疗法,治疗选择仅限于对症治疗。该疾病导致的面部毁容可能对患者心理和生活质量产生巨大负面影响。鉴于此,改善容貌的治疗可能会使患者受益匪浅。我们报告一名19岁患类脂蛋白沉积症的女性患者,她前来寻求面部皮损的治疗。她接受了分次二氧化碳激光和非剥脱性射频联合治疗方案,取得了良好的临床和美学效果。
