Ruchi Hemdani, Manas Chatterjee, Keshav MarkandayJournal of Cutaneous and Aesthetic Surgery 2020 13(1):5-10Context: Ear piercing is a common practice in women seen in the Asian and African subcontinents. Traumatic elongation of ear lobe cleft is seen following long-standing use of heavy jewellery on the ear, or a tug on the earring. These inadvertent tears of the lobe have resulted in patients seeking earlobe repairs, which are routinely performed as an outpatient procedure. Various surgical methods...
Garrison A Leach, Hally M Chaffin, Meghan C Bristyan, Travis C HolcombeJournal of Cutaneous and Aesthetic Surgery 2020 13(1):57-58We describe a unique method for closure of running subcuticular/intradermal suture that minimizes potential abscess formation and maximizes cosmetic outcomes.
Nazneen Z Arsiwala, Arun C Inamadar, Keshavmurthy A AdyaJournal of Cutaneous and Aesthetic Surgery 2020 13(1):11-17Context: Acne vulgaris is a chronic inflammatory disorder of the pilosebaceous unit prevalent in adolescent population. Atrophic acne scarring negatively affects the quality of life. Although challenging to treat, the introduction of fractional carbon dioxide (CO2) laser and platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy for atrophic scars has opened up new avenues. Aim: The aim of this study was...

Abhay K Rai, K Janani, Reena RaiJournal of Cutaneous and Aesthetic Surgery 2020 13(1):18-23Background: Chronic venous ulcers sometimes fail to heal in spite of adequate treatment. Nonhealing is possibly because of chronic activation of β-2 adrenergic receptor (B2-AR) in the keratinocytes by endogenously generated catecholamines, which inhibits keratinocyte migration. Blocking of B2-AR using β-blockers has been reported to promote wound healing through keratinocyte migration, angiogenesis, and fibroblast...

Sarah A RinginJournal of Cutaneous and Aesthetic Surgery 2020 13(1):24-30Non-venereal warts are a frequent dermatological presentation with potential spontaneous regression in immunocompetent adults and children within 2 years. Evidence shows that conventional wart treatments are not a guaranteed treatment modality and can carry concerns regarding safety. The aim of this literature review was to identify the most effective treatments for wart resolution to guide clinical practice while identifying...
Amin Rahpeyma, Saeedeh KhajehahmadiJournal of Cutaneous and Aesthetic Surgery 2020 13(1):1-4Facial blanching as a complication of local anesthesia is reported in dentistry. Inadvertent arterial penetration and subsequent vasospasm has been accepted as the mechanism of this phenomenon. Most cases occur after inferior alveolar nerve block injection. In this article, five cases are reported after Gow-Gates injection, maxillary nerve block via greater palatine foramen, inferior alveolar nerve block,...
Amit S Kerure, Sandip M Agrawal, Rachita Dhurat, Alex GinzburgJournal of Cutaneous and Aesthetic Surgery 2020 13(1):31-34Follicular unit extraction (FUE) is a popular hair transplant technique, which involves extraction of follicular grafts from the donor area, usually occipital area of scalp. We have described few cases where non-scarring alopecia patches appeared at donor area similar to that of alopecia areata clinically, after 2–3 weeks of surgery. Even trichoscopically, findings were similar...
Anil K Garg, Seema GargJournal of Cutaneous and Aesthetic Surgery 2020 13(1):50-56Background: There is a time lag between hair follicle harvesting and implantation; during this time, hair follicles have ischemic injury. We need a holding media or a solution to minimize or neutralize ischemic injury. Aim and Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate plasma as a graft-holding solution in terms of its efficacy in hair growth and hair graft survival. Materials and Methods: A split-scalp study...
Eric Clayman, Alicia Billington, Carl Wayne CruseJournal of Cutaneous and Aesthetic Surgery 2020 13(1):35-37Cyanoacrylate is an acrylic resin that is used as an adhesive in acrylic nail glues and various other strong, rapidly acting adhesives, such as “Dermabond” and “Super Glue.” This adhesive is very effective in a variety of settings; however, when cyanoacrylate comes into contact with cotton fibers, an exothermic reaction occurs that is severe enough to cause a full-thickness burn to the underlying...
Avitus J Prasad, Animesh Saxena, Vivek K DeyJournal of Cutaneous and Aesthetic Surgery 2020 13(1):59-61A hand glove is not only used to maintain sterility of the procedure but also to protect the physician from communicable diseases. A glove can be used in a variety of procedures, which are commonly performed in clinics. These help the doctor by serving as a tool in procedures and in cutting the cost of these procedures. A hand glove could be used in various innovative ways as highlighted in this...
Umashankar Nagaraju, Pranami Kashyap, Leena RaveendraJournal of Cutaneous and Aesthetic Surgery 2020 13(1):38-42Wound healing is a multifaceted process. Restoration of the epithelium may occur either by migration of activated epithelial keratinocytes from the adjoining epithelium or by centrifugal migration of putative stem cells found in the bulge region of the hair follicle. Dermal collagen and glycosaminoglycans also play a key role in laying down the scaffold for vascular in-growth and population...

Sanjeev Gupta, Ravi S Jangra, Saurabh S Gupta, Sunita GuptaJournal of Cutaneous and Aesthetic Surgery 2020 13(1):43-45Sometimes, suture thread detaches from needle while suturing. This leads to wastage of left over thread and we have to repeat whole process of suturing as the extra suture needles are not easily available. The present article highlights the use of hypodermic needle as suture needle in such emergencies.
