Overview

Brief Summary

  1. Striae distensae (SD), also known as stretch marks, are common, permanent dermal lesions that can be symptomatic and are considered aesthetically undesirable; thus, they pose a significant psychosocial and therapeutic challenge. SD arise in areas of dermal stretching and most commonly occur on the abdomen, breasts, buttocks, and thighs. Most literature has described SD during pregnancy(striae gravidarum) and puberty, with reported prevalences varying from 11% to 88%. Hormonal influences, reduced genetic expression of fibronectin, collagen, and elastin, and mechanical stretching of the skin have all been postulated to contribute to SD formation. In the acute phase, SD appear as red/violaceous lesions (striae rubrae; SR) that can be raised and symptomatic. The chronic form (striae albae; SA) exists as hypopigmented dermal depressions.
  2. Polylevolactic Acid(PLLA) is at present one of the most promising biodegradable polymers (biopolymers) and has been the subject of abundant literature over the last decade. PLLA can be processed with a large number of techniques and is commercially available (large-scale production) in a wide range of grades.
  3. Previous studies have found that 1565-nm laser can promote the synthesis of types I, III, and VII collagen and elastin, as well as the remodeling of dermal collagen. According to previous studies, dermal collagen deposition and remodeling may be related to the mechanism by which 1565-nm laser improves SD.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

The treatment effect is judged by color, area, concavity and convexity, and skin elasticity

Time Frame: 4months

* Color: Ranked in order as follows: Purple red pink skin color, no change 0 point, 1 point added for each shade subtracted; * Area: 0 point: no change, 1 point: slightly improved, 2 points: significantly improved, 3 points: basically invisible; * Bump sensation: 0 point: no change, 1 point: slightly improved, 2 points: significantly improved, 3 points: bump basically eliminated; * Skin elasticity: 0 point: no change, 1 point: slightly improved, 2 points: significantly improved, 3 points: very satisfied; The total score of 6-12 points is basically cured; A total score of 3-5 points is significant; Effective with a total score of 1-2; A total score ≤ 1 is invalid. Total effective rate of treatment=(basically cured+significantly effective+effective)/total number of cases × 100%. Higher scores mean a better outcome.
