Abstract
Fifty one female outpatients with facial seborrheic dermatitis attending in Xuanwu Hospital during February 2016 to July 2016 were randomly assigned in two groups: 28 patients were treated with hyaluronic acid gel (study group) and 23 patients were treated with tacrolimus ointment (control group) for 28 days. The improvement of symptoms after treatment was observed by a questionnaire, and VISIA was used to quantify the skin index of the patients. There was no difference in the therapeutic effect between the study group and control group after 28 days (P>0.05). The facial spots and red areas were decreased in both groups, compared to those before treatment (P<0.05). The results indicate that hyaluronic acid gel is safe, non-irritating and effective in treatment of seborrheic dermatitis, and VISIA provides an objective and effective method for assessing the skin lesions seborrheic dermatitis.
