1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

The use of injectable aesthetic treatments (including fillers, neurotoxins, polynucleotides, and biostimulators) and nonenergy surface-active aesthetic treatments (such as chemical peels, microneedling, and microdermabrasion) is increasing. To date, little guidance is available in the literature concerning periprocedural skincare for these aesthetic procedures. The aim of the authors of this study is to provide periprocedural skincare recommendations and an algorithm to guide holistic skincare that will enhance and retain procedural effects and optimize skin health in the longer term. A panel of 6 Australian aesthetic practitioners (5 dermatologists and 1 plastic surgeon) developed generalized periprocedural skincare recommendations for injectable and surface-active aesthetic treatments. Recommendations were stratified into 2 categories: skin barrier nondisruptive procedures (fillers, threads, neuromodulators, and polynucleotides) and skin barrier disruptive procedures (nonenergy surface-active procedures). Establishing a good preprocedural basic skincare routine (cleanser, moisturizer, and broad-spectrum sun protection factor 50+ sunscreen) 2 to 4 weeks before a procedure is recommended. Actives including vitamin A, vitamin B3, antioxidants, hyaluronic acid, and lipids may also be advised and tailored to an individual's skin condition. It is suggested that toners and exfoliants can be avoided, whereas antioxidants, tranexamic acid, and growth factors can be used immediately following needling procedures. Hyaluronic acid and antioxidants may be used immediately following chemical peels along with bland skincare. Postprocedural makeup and skincare actives should be avoided immediately post surface-active procedures. The implementation of periprocedural skincare regimens may improve treatment-related outcomes and reduce recovery time. Furthermore, frequency and severity of potential side effects may be reduced.
