The present study was performed to evaluate the efficacy of injecting both nondiluted and diluted calcium hydroxyapatite filler into the dorsal surface of the hands in the same session, in addition to repeating the same approach along two different postoperative intervals (2 and 4 months). The study included 40 female patients who complained about the visibility of the veins and tendons, and loss of skin elasticity in their hands. First, 0.5 mL of nondiluted calcium hydroxyapatite filler was injected in each hand using a cannula through a single entry point (total of 1 mL for both hands), and the next step was injecting a diluted calcium hydroxyapatite. The same protocol was repeated at 2 and 4 months postoperative. All patients were followed up at the following intervals for recording their satisfaction score: 14 days, 2 months, 4 months, and 6 months. Postoperative measurements of the patient satisfaction score at 14 days follow-up showed a significant increase in their satisfaction; this was maintained up to 6 months postoperative. Combining both nondiluted and diluted calcium hydroxyapatite filler injections for hand rejuvenation in the same session may provide more stable results than using each formula alone or in different sessions.
本研究旨在评估在同一疗程中,将未稀释和稀释的羟基磷灰石填充剂注射到手背的效果,此外还在两个不同的术后间隔时间(2个月和4个月)重复相同的方法。该研究纳入了40名抱怨手部静脉和肌腱明显、皮肤弹性丧失的女性患者。首先,通过单个进针点使用套管针在每只手中注射0.5毫升未稀释的羟基磷灰石填充剂(双手共1毫升),下一步是注射稀释的羟基磷灰石填充剂。术后2个月和4个月重复相同的方案。在以下时间间隔对所有患者进行随访以记录他们的满意度评分:14天、2个月、4个月和6个月。术后14天随访时患者满意度评分的测量结果显示其满意度显著提高;这种情况一直维持到术后6个月。在同一疗程中联合使用未稀释和稀释的羟基磷灰石填充剂进行手部年轻化治疗,可能比单独使用每种配方或在不同疗程中使用能提供更稳定的效果。
