AIM OF STUDY: This is a retrospective study aimed at evaluating the effectiveness of the use of electromagnetic fields and negative pressure treatment (V-EMF) for facial scars, from an aesthetic and functional point of view, and considering the variations in the levels of hydration. MATERIAL AND METHODS: 25 subjects with facial scarring were re-evaluated after being treated with the V-EMF method. The hydration levels of the scars before and after treatment were compared. The results were evaluated considering the satisfaction levels of the patients with the VAS, and of the medical specialists who performed the treatment, and of 3 independent dermatologists with the Likert scale. RESULTS: Mean hydration levels of scars went from 41.8 to 53.3, with mean hydration levels of healthy reference points equal to 54.6. The minimum patient satisfaction level was 2 in the VAS. The minimum level of satisfaction of specialists and dermatologists was equal to IV on the Likert scale for all patients, except for 1 subject in which it was III for the specialist who had treated him. Anti-aging and re-pigmentation effects were also noted as secondary results. CONCLUSIONS: From an aesthetic and functional point of view, and for the overall anti-aging effect of the treated area, V-EMF applied to facial scars has shown extremely promising results.
研究目的:本研究旨在从美学和功能的角度评估电磁场和负压治疗(V-EMF)对面部瘢痕的有效性,并考虑到水合水平的变化。
材料和方法:对 25 名接受 V-EMF 治疗的面部瘢痕患者进行了重新评估。比较了治疗前后瘢痕的水合水平。通过视觉模拟评分(VAS)评估患者对 V-EMF 的满意度、治疗医生对 V-EMF 的满意度以及 3 位独立皮肤科医生对 V-EMF 的满意度,以及 Likert 量表来评估治疗效果。
结果:瘢痕的平均水合水平从 41.8 增加到 53.3,而健康参考点的平均水合水平为 54.6。VAS 的最小患者满意度为 2。除 1 名接受治疗的专家对该患者的满意度为 III 外,所有患者的专家和皮肤科医生的最小满意度均为 Likert 量表的 IV。还观察到了抗衰老和再着色效果作为次要结果。
结论:从美学和功能的角度来看,以及从治疗区域的整体抗衰老效果来看,应用于面部瘢痕的 V-EMF 显示出了非常有前景的结果。
