The efficacy and safety study of the combined use of platelet-rich plasma and fractional radiofrequency ablation in the treatment of post-acne scars
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Introduction. So far, a large number of skin scars treating methods have been proposed and tested. The use of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is currently being considered as one of the most promising approaches to skin scar treatment. Aim. Clinical efficacy and safety evaluation of complex treatment of post-acne scars using PRP. Materials and methods. An open, randomized, prospective study was conducted in parallel groups. The study included 78 patients with post-acne scars, then randomized into 2 groups. Group 1: 36 patients receiving platelet-rich plasma (PRP); group 2: 42 patients receiving complex treatment with PRP and fractional radiofrequency ablation (PRP + FRF). PRP procedures using the micro-papular technique in group 1 were carried out 5 times with an interval of 2 weeks. The combination of PRP + FRF in group 2 was performed according to the following: the first procedure – FRF, two weeks later – PRP using the micro-papular technique. Then after 2 weeks FRF was performed again, and so on. The total number of procedures of both techniques was 10. Results and discussion. As a result of the treatment, in all patients with post-acne, the clinical indicators of the severity of skin scarring changes decreased significantly, while the most noticeable dynamics were common for patients in group 2. The scars assessment using the Vancouver scale showed that 6 and 12 months after treatment, the severity of objective components and the severity of subjective sensations decreased in most patients. The severity of their own attitude to persistent defects also decreased. Analysis of the frequency of adverse reactions during treatment and in the early period showed that there were no significant intergroup differences in individual adverse reactions. The overall frequency of adverse events in the long-term period also did not significantly differ. Conclusion. The results of the study indicate that the use of PRP in the complex treatment of scarring is a clinically effective and safe method of treatment and allows you to expand the range of therapeutic approaches for scarring skin deformities.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
