INTRODUCTION: Non-ablative fractional lasers are well-known effective treatments for skin rejuvenation. However, the high incidence of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation increases the risk of complications, especially in higher skin phototypes. Caviar phospholipid supplementation has been used successfully to reduce the inflammatory process, which may be beneficial to manage post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation after laser. OBJECTIVE: To compare the incidence of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation in high phototypes after caviar phospholipid supplementation. METHODS: 20 patients underwent a non-ablative fractional laser session (Nd:YAP 1340nm, Zye Vydence, Brazil), and 10 of them used 200 mg of caviar phospholipid orally daily for 15 days before treatment and 40 days after. Patient images were evaluated before and after 40 days of laser application. Clinical assessment was based on the presence or absence of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. Statistical analysis was performed using the Z test. RESULTS: We observed no cases of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation in the experimental group; however, the control group presented 30%. CONCLUSIONS: Caviar phospholipid may be an option for preventing post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation after non-ablative fractional lasers, aiming to avoid adverse events. |
