ABSTRACT

Background: Laser resurfacing treatments have revolutionized dermatological procedures by improving skin texture, tone, and quality. Effective periprocedural care remains essential to reduce side effects, support healing, and optimize aesthetic outcomes. Hypochlorous acid (HOCl), a naturally occurring oxidant with anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties, has demonstrated efficacy in promoting wound healing and minimizing scarring.

Aim: To evaluate the use of stabilized HOCl mist in the periprocedural care of patients undergoing laser resurfacing.

Methods: Ten patients underwent treatment with UltraClear, CO2RE, and/or GentleMax Pro laser devices. Stabilized HOCl mist was applied before and after the procedure, with continued application twice daily for 1week posttreatment. Follow-up assessments at 1–3weeks and 1–3months post-procedure included clinical photography, tolerability evaluation, and aesthetic outcome assessment. Outcomes measured included Clinician Erythema Assessment (CEA), 4-point Edema Scale, Investigator Global Assessment of Pigmentation Scale (IPA), and Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale (GAIS). Statistical analysis was performed using the Friedman and Wilcoxon signed-rank tests.

Results: HOCl mist was associated with accelerated recovery, including a noticeable reduction in erythema and pigmentation. Statistically significant improvements were observed in CEA (p=0.007) and IPA (p=0.012) scores, indicating reduced clinical severity and pigment alteration. Edema and GAIS scores showed no statistically significant change.

Conclusion: Stabilized HOCl mist is well-tolerated and may significantly aid post-procedural recovery by minimizing side effects and reducing discomfort. Results support the potential role of stabilized HOCl mist as a beneficial adjunct in post-laser skincare, contributing to faster healing, reduced inflammation, and enhanced cosmetic results.

Abstract: Background: In chronic wounds, high concentrations of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) can cause excessive proteolysis and slow wound healing. Consequently, restoring a proper MMP balance can help reduce the risk of a chronic wound. An antiseptic solution containing 0.05% sodium hypochlorite (Amukine Med 0.05%, Angelini S.p.A.; hereafter termed NaClO solution) is available on the market. The NaClO solution was proven effective and safe in managing infected skin wounds. To further characterize its activity, this study evaluated the in vitro activity of the NaClO solution on the monocyte release of MMPs. Methods: Human monocytic THP-1 (ATCC® TIB-202™) cell lines were differentiated into macrophages and treated with different concentrations of NaClO (from 0.05% to 5 × 10−7%). In addition, the THP-1 cell line was stimulated with wound fluid (WF) from patients with active venous leg ulcers in the inflammatory phase. The effect of NaClO (0.025–0.0062%) was also evaluated on healthy human peripheral blood serum samples. The effects of treatments on the gelatinolytic activity of MMP-9 were evaluated by gelatin zymography. The effects on MMPs release were evaluated through the Pro™ Human MMP 9-plex Assay. An exploratory scratch wound healing assay was also performed. Results: The NaClO solution reduced the gelatinolytic activity of MMP-9 and its activated form. The downregulation of MMP-9 gelatinolytic activity was also observed in peripheral blood serum. The MMPs profile showed a reduction in MMP-1 release (p < 0.05) and a slight reduction of the release of MMP-9 and MMP-12 after the treatment with LPS and the NaClO solution. A slight improvement in wound healing was observed after macrophage activation and treatment with the NaClO solution. Conclusions: The results obtained suggest a possible ability of the NaClO solution to modulate the proteolytic pathways in the wound microenvironment, further characterizing its activity and use in clinical practice during wound care.

Background: People who suffered type 2 diabetes have impaired healing of wounds due to the large number of circulating inflammatory cells resulting from high blood sugar levels. The wound healing process involves various complex processes including the degradation of extracellular matrix, a process characterized by an increase in matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9). Conventional management of diabetic wounds usually involves systemic blood sugar control and topical antimicrobial treatment, including hydrogen peroxide and povidone-iodine, which are known to be cytotoxic to the cells involved in the wound healing cascade. Finding a safe, non-toxic, and effecting wound cleansing still poses a challenge, and hypochlorous acid (HOCl) could act as a potential candidate.

Purpose: Unveiling an HOCl ion as an agent for diabetic wound management and MMP-9 as a marker for delayed diabetic wound

Methods: The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) Flow Diagram is used to find and select related, eligible literatures for the review. The authors used several databases such as Pro Quest, Scopus, Springer link an Science Direct. In addition, and to expand the data, the database on Google Scholar was also opened. Then, the compiled data are analyzed to form results and discussions to the research question.

Results: Five eligible articles passed the inclusion criteria and reviewed for data synthesis. From 5 pieces of literature, it was found that the use of HOCl ions can be a good choice of topical agent in the management of diabetic wounds and decrease the activity of MMP-9, which act as a marker for delayed healing of diabetic wounds.

Conclusion: Topical agent, in this case HOCl ion, shows good results and can be used as an option in the management of diabetic wounds and MMP-9 can be used as a predictive marker in the management of diabetic wounds.
