Abstract:Objective To study the clinical effects of pimecrolimus combined with red light therapy on the facial corticosteroid addictive dermatitis. Methods Forty volunteers with facial corticosteroid addictive dermatitis were randomly divided into two groups. The control group with 20 cases accepted pimecrolimus ointment only, the experimental group with 20 cases accepted pimecrolimus ointment and red light therapy. Results Questionnaires results revealed that volunteers from the experimental group felt more satisfied, and the difference between the two groups is significant (P<0.05). The assessment by doctors implicated that the effect of pimecrolimus combined with red light on the facial corticosteroid addictive dermatitis was much more better (P<0.05). The recurrent rate of the experimental group was lower. Conclusion Pimecrolimus combined with red light therapy can accelerate the recovery process of facial corticosteroid addictive dermatitis.
