Abstract
In recent literature, different approaches have been proposed to improve the long-lasting treatment of age-related alterations on the human face with decreased invasiveness and side effects such as scar tissue. Voltaic arc dermabrasion is a minimally painful procedure that does not create discomfort to the patient and requires no anaesthesia. The aim of this investigation was to evaluate the voltaic arc technique for the treatment of skin wrinkles in the periauricular area. A total of 80 patients were treated in this study, 56 females and 24 males. The population was visited at 1 week, 1 month, and 2 months postoperative follow-ups to evaluate the healing of the treated regions. All subjects showed evidence of tissue contraction related to the skin of the periauricular region with a cosmetic reduction of wrinkles in the treated area. No scars, complications, or pigmentary alterations were reported. At 1 month, all treated areas showed complete healing. The voltaic arc dermabrasion can be considered a useful tool for a noninvasive treatment of wrinkles related to the periauricular skin, with no discomfort for the patient or complications related to the procedure.
