Early and delayed effects of intralesional triamcinolone side effects and risks can be distinguished.
Early effects, which are usually self-contained. They are as follows:
Pain, bruising and bleeding
Benzyl alcohol, a preservative, causes allergic contact dermatitis.
Wound healing issues
A sterile abscess necessitates surgical draining in some cases.
The following are some of the long-term adverse effects:
Skin indentations or dimples around the injection sites a few weeks after treatment; may be permanent.
White marks (leukoderma) or brown marks (post-inflammatory pigmentation) at the injection site or spreading from the injection site; may resolve or persist long term.
Telangiectasia at the injection site can be treated, if necessary, with laser or intense pulsed light Telangiectasia at the injection site (IPL).
Hypertrichosis is localised and resolves with time.
Whether localised or distant, Steroid acne is caused by an increase in growth hormone, which causes the sebaceous glands to produce more sebum. When a steroid is withdrawn, steroid acne usually improves.
No, there is no need for special preparation before the procedure.
The intra lesional steroid injection should not be injected at the location of an active skin infection (e.g., impetigo or herpes simplex).
If you have a known triamcinolone allergy, you should avoid using them.
Triamcinolone acetonide is classified as a systemic steroid when taken in large doses to treat oral steroids like prednisone. Therefore, in patients with the following conditions, these should be avoided:
Active tuberculosis or a fungal infection that has spread throughout the body
Systemic steroids may destabilise psoriasis in those with extensive plaque psoriasis, pustular psoriasis, or erythrodermic psoriasis.
Peptic ulcer illness that is active
Diabetes uncontrolled, heart failure, or severe hypertension
Psychosis or severe depression
Allergic responses are extremely infrequent and dose-insensitive. Local or generalised skin rash or anaphylaxis may occur in severe conditions.
Because the dose used is so small, other systemic side effects are unlikely to occur due to the intralesional injection of localised skin disease.
The following potentially fatal conditions are due to large doses of triamcinolone acetonide injected intramuscularly.
Heart: in susceptible patients, congestive heart failure, fluid retention, hypertension, and cardiac arrhythmias.
Hormonal changes: Hormonal changes involve reduced glucose tolerance, Cushing syndrome, hirsutism, hypertrichosis, diabetes mellitus, menstrual irregularities, adrenocortical, pituitary unresponsiveness, and growth suppression in children.
Musculoskeletal disorders: Aseptic necrosis of the hip or shoulder bones, calcinosis, osteoporosis and pathological fractures, muscular weakening, and tendon rupture
Convulsions, despair, euphoria, swelling of the brain, sleeplessness, and mood changes are neurologic/psychiatric symptoms.
Glaucoma, cataracts, and rare cases of blindness have all been linked to periocular injections.
MNRF uses radio frequency energy waves to transfer heat to collagen under the skin. The electrodes placed over the skin in the form of needles transmit RF energy waves which generate heat. As heat flows through the layers of skin with less hindrance it stimulates the production of new collagen and elastin which improves skin texture.
A laser uses an intense light beam which converts into heat in the skin. It breaks and remodels the scar to heal over time.
Swelling and redness are a common reaction of MNRF which subsides in a few days with the application of ice. Any scabs formed will fall off completely after a week. Meanwhile it can be concealed with makeup till it completely comes off.
Protection from sun is the foremost condition after a session of MNRF. It is advised to avoid going out in the sun for a minimum of 48 hours after the treatment. Swimming, exposure to the beach is to be avoided. Any harsh and rigorous procedure on the skin such as facials, bleach, scrubbing, peels can be done after a week of MNRF session.
