ADVICES TO PATIENT BEFORE AND AFTER LASER AND IPL TREATMENTRECOMMANDATIONS AU PATIENT AVANT ET APRÈS UN TRAITEMENT LASER OU IPLLEONARDO MARINI(FRANCE)Patient-physician relationships have quite evolved during recent years due to a constantly increasing availability of conventional andadvanced communication sources where the entire spectrum of medical-surgical knowledge as well as old and brand new technologicadvances are discussed. Patients do not "shop around" just visiting and consulting different doctors' offices but also reading on theirweb sites and on the internet before making a final decision. Informed consents are an enormous problem since they must be acceptedas legal documents and should contain an enormous quantity of information, quite similar to the informative pamphlets accompanyinga drug. Unfortunately there is no standardization and extremely simple to discouraging complicated documents are available. Patientscan be scared after reading all possible complications, side and adverse effects and may even refuse treatments. This is morecommon in cosmetic indications. The "before and after" laser and IPL treatments is an important sequence of ancillary skin careregimes which are intended as an integral part of the overall procedure. Patients should be aware of the importance of thesepreliminary and following steps that will take them along the path of a predictable clinical success. Personal adjustments are alwaysnecessary since different skin types and different patients have a different skin reactivity to laser and IPL treatments. They need to beperfectly known by physicians before choosing emission parameters during their procedures. Lasers and IPL sources are responsiblefor selected thermal wounding that follow all sequential maturation processes known as tissue healing. Preparing tissues and adoptinga proper wound healing skin care do have quite a significant impact on the final outcome of our treatments. All these information shouldbe properly printed on our informed consents.AESTHETIC DERMATOLOGY & SURGERYTATTOOING: SIGNIFICANCE, RISKS, AND REMOVING PROCEDURESTATOUAGE : IMPORTANCE, RISQUES ET TECHNIQUES D’EFFACEMENTPIERCING: SIGNIFICANCE AND RISKSPIERCING : IMPORTANCE ET RISQUESNICOLAS KLUGER(FRANCE)NICOLAS KLUGER(FRANCE)Piercing has regained popularity for the past decade. It is characterized by the introduction of a "ring" usually made of surgical steel,niobium or titanium in a wide variety of anatomic locations such as noses, ears or navel.Underlying motivations for obtaining piercing are nowadays highly variable : beauty, art and fashion; individuality; personal catharsis;physical endurance; group affiliations and commitment; resistance; spirituality and cultural tradition; addiction; sexual motivation; orsometimes no specific reason.Piercing may be performed in a wide variety of anatomic locations such as ear lobes; lips; nose; auricular helix; eyebrows; nipples; naveland genitals. In practice, any part of the skin may be pierced.Various components may be found in the rings: surgical steel, niobium, titanium. Nickel, which is highly allergenic, is sometimes found.Since 2001, nickel concentration is limited up to a maximum of 0,05% in Europe.Piercing is usually performed in a " professional " parlour. The piercier has undoubtedly acquired an experience and a technique whichmake him/her a real professional. However, their knowledge in anatomy, chemistry and in the basic rules of hygiene is often limited.Delay of healing is highly variable according to the location of the ring. It usually takes up to several months before a complete healingis acquired: 6 to 8 weeks for the ears, eyebrows and lips; 3 to 6 weeks for the tongue; 2 weeks to 9 months for genital piercing accordingto the localization; more than 9 months for a navel piercing (due to chronic traumas).Two kinds of complications are considered. The ones that are independent and the ones that are specific to a localization.Complications that are common to every piercing may include :Contact dermatitis (nickel, disinfectant…) ; bleeding ; hematoma ; keloid formation ; bacterial infections with cutaneous infections (dueto S.aureus, Streptococcus A, P.aeruginosa), tetanos, osteomyelitis, septic arthritis or endocarditis and viral infections (hepatitis B +++,hepatitis C and HIV (one plausible case reported)Complications according to the localization may includeEars- Perichondritis; abcess; ear deformation; tissue tearing; embedded earringsOral mucosa- Swelling, chewing and speech disorders; perforation; tissue tearing; jewelry inhalation or swallowing; galvanism; halitosis; gingivalrecession; dental alterations: tooth fracture or chipping; nerve damage; interference with radiographs and with airways management;Ludwig's angina; uncontrolled drooling;Nose- Jewelry swallowing or aspiration; perichondritis; necrosis of nasal wall; septal hematoma formationNipple- Breast feeding impairment;Genitals (women)- Compromise of barrier contraceptivesGenitals (men)- Frictional irritation; paraphimosis; penile engorgement; priapism; recurrent condyloma; urethral rupture; urethral stricture; urinary flowinterruption; loss of the jewelry during sexual intercourseReferences1.

Progressive facial and ligamentous laxity causes fat descentand sagging.In the lower face, fat descent along with attenuation and lengthening of the orbicularis oris and depressor anguli oris muscles, createsa downward slant of the corner of the mouth and the appearance of " marionette lines ".The falling fat accumulates behind the mandibular retaining ligaments and creates " jowls "In the neck, the platysma muscle is also attenuated, there is pre platysmal and sub platysmal fat accumulation, submental and neckfolds and loss of the cervicomenal angle.Another process that contributes to facial aging is the loss of glandular tissue, much of the firmness of a youthful face is due to a highglandular concentration.At the bone level, osteoporosis results in skeletal resorption which alters soft tissue support.Overall, the volumetric distribution in the face is altered and, in facial rejuvenation surgical procedures, volumetric restoration is moreimportant than the amount of skin excess resected.ARTISTIC ANALYSIS OF THE HARMONY OF THE LIPSANALYSE ARTISTIQUE DE L’HARMONIE DES LÈVRESROBIN MOOKHERJEE(FRANCE)EnglishMedical or surgical correction of the lips cannot be done without an artistic approach.Analysing the harmony of lips is speaking of caracteristic elements like beauty and mobility and involving the different parts of the facelike nose chin, eyes.There is a very subjective aspect to this analysis as beauty varies during the different periods of life, and also with race, culture,fashion. But there are some basic facts that stay, that we should keep in mind to give our patients the best medical or surgical result.We will show how in different cases, different artistic approches are possible, concerning lip contour, cupid's bow, volume, oralcomissures, in connection with the rest of the face.FrançaisAnalyse artistique de l'harmonie des lèvresUne correction médicale ou chirurgicale des lèvres se doit d'être effectuée avec une approche artistique. Parler de l'harmonie deslèvres c'est parler de beauté et de mobilité concernant d'autres éléments du visage comme le nez, le menton, les yeux, les joues.Il y a un coté très subjectif à cette analyse, puisque par définition la beauté varie selon l'age, la race, la culture, la mode de chacun.Il reste cependant des éléments constants,que nous devons garder à l'esprit pour donner le meilleur résultat médical ou chirurgical ànos patients.Nous allons démontrer les différentes approches possibles concernant l'ourlet, l'arc de cupidon, le volume des lèvres, les commissureslabiales et ceci en connexion avec le reste du visage.48
