<\/span><\/h2>\nSolar elastosis is a disorder in which the skin appears yellow and thickened as a result of sun damage.

<\/span>How is solar elastosis diagnosed?<\/span><\/h2>\nSolar elastosis is diagnosed clinically by its appearance or microscopically on the skin. biopsy<\/span>. Histology<\/span> shows loss of eosin staining in H&E sections resulting in a bluish color of the top dermis<\/span> with an accumulation of irregular thickening elastic fibers<\/span>. These elastic fibers degrade to form tangled structures of disorganized tropoelastin and fibrillin.<\/p>\nthe differential diagnosis<\/span> of solar elastosis on the hands includes keratoelastoidalis marginalis, which is an acquired form of marginal<\/span> keratoderma<\/span> affecting the sides of the index fingers and thumbs. <\/p>\n<\/span>Who gets solar elastosis?<\/span><\/h2>\nSolar elastosis affects people who have had long-term sun exposure and is a characteristic of photoaging<\/span>. It affects people of all skin types, but its yellow tone is more evident in people with white skin.<\/p>\n<\/span>Of smoking<\/span><\/h3>\nSolar elastosis is also a manifestation of premature skin aging caused by smoking.<\/p>\n
Tobacco smoke affects the production of collagen<\/span> and increases the production of tropoelastin and matrix metalloproteinases<\/span> (MMP) These degrade matrix proteins and produce abnormal elastotic material in the dermis (1). Elastic fiber changes in smokers extend deep into the lattice<\/span> dermis<\/span> while in sun damage these changes tend to be restricted to the most superficial ones. papillary dermis<\/span>. (2)<\/p>\n<\/span>Prevention and treatment of solar elastosis.<\/span><\/h2>\nPeople with solar elastosis should minimize or avoid exposure to its known precipitants:<\/p>\n
\n- careful sun protection measures with clothing and broad-spectrum high-protective sunscreens\n<\/li>\n
- Quit smoking and avoid exposure to passive smoking.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Ablative and non-ablative To be<\/span> deals, dermal<\/span> fillers and neurotoxin injections (botulinum toxin<\/span>) have been used in an attempt to improve the cosmetic appearance of solar elastosis.<\/p>\nIt has been suggested that imiquimod may help improve histological<\/span> Appearance of sun-damaged skin, including elastotic<\/span> changes in the dermis, but this is not confirmed (3).<\/p>\n<\/section>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Que es solar elastosis?
