Abstract:
Objective:To explore the effect of intense pulsed light combined with barrier special care cream in the treatment of rosacea.Methods:A retrospective study was performed for 82 patients with rosacea in Xianyang Central Hospital of Shaanxi Province from February to April 2021, and they were divided into two groups according to different treatment methods: 47 cases in the observation group, treated with intense pulsed light combined with barrier special cream, including 22 males and 25 females, aged 22-40 (30.6±4.2) years; in the control group, 35 cases were treated with intense pulsed light, including 19 males and 16 females, aged 20-42 (31.1±5.0) years. The efficacy of treatment was observed after 4 months of continuous treatment in both groups. The clinical symptom score, total effective rate, skin physiological indexes (stratum corneum water content, skin oil content) and incidence of adverse reactions were compared between the two groups.Results:After 4 months of treatment, the clinical symptom score of the observation group was (4.0±0.6), which was lower than that of the control group (4.5±0.7) ( P<0.001). The total effective rate of the observation group was 95.7% (45/47), which was higher than that (80.0%, 28/35) of the control group ( P=0.024). The water content of stratum corneum and skin oil content in the observation group were higher than those in the control group (all P<0.05). The incidence of adverse reactions was 22.9% (8/35) in the control group and 6.4% (3/47) in the observation group, and the difference was statistically significant ( P=0.030). Conclusion:Intense pulsed light combined with barrier cream for the treatment of rosacea can improve the clinical symptoms of patients and has a good safety profile.
