Abstract
Background: Tinea capitis is the term used for scalp infections caused by dermatophyte fungi. Tinea capitis is common in children and is less common in adults.
Case Report: The case was a 9-year-old girl with itchy patches of alopecia on the. The patient had a cat as a pet. On examination, the patch of hair loss was itchy and the hair shaft was broken and scales were mild. In the examination with Wood's lamp and direct microscopic examination, the ectothrix infection was deagnised. According to the dermatologist's opinion, a terbinafine 50 mg was prescribed daily. However, no significant improvement was observed despite 4 weeks of terbinafine. As a result, the dose of terbinafine treatment was changed from 50 mg to 250 mg per day. After 6 weeks of treatment, the clinical manifestations of the patient improved significantly.
Conclusion: After ringworm is confirmed microscopically, choosing the most appropriate antifungal treatment depends on determining the fungal species by culture. Therefore, when choosing empiric antifungal agent therapy, a dose of 250 mg terbinafine may be a good choice for children.

Abstract
Background and Aim: Allergic contact dermatitis is the most frequent cause of eyelid dermatitis; but it is often misdiagnosed. This study aims to evaluate the characteristics of patients with eyelid dermatitis who referred for patch test.
Methods: This was a retrospective study. Three major subgroups were made: patients with only eyelid involvement, involvement of eyelids and other areas, and without eyelid involvement. Collected data included past history, diagnoses, personal care product & make-up use, occupational dermatitis, and positive allergens. Chi-squared, independent t-test, and one-way ANOVA were used for analysis.
Results: 139 patients with eyelid dermatitis who referred for patch test were included in the study. Allergic contact dermatitis was the most common diagnosis in all three groups referred for patch test. Use of shaving cream and hair conditioner was significantly higher in patients with only eyelid involvement and nickel sulphate was the most common allergen among them.
Conclusion: Patch testing is an important tool in the evaluation of the common dermatologic disease of eyelid contact dermatitis, as the gold standard. It is a necessity in the treatment of eyelid dermatitis, because of accurate identification of responsible allergens.

Abstract
Background and Aim: Recently, many Iranian companies have started manufacturing hyaluronic acid based dermal fillers. Current review aimed to assess and compare the clinical safety and efficacy of 5 Iranian hyaluronic acid based dermal fillers.
Methods: The first part of the study reported, the overall safety and efficacy of 5 Iranian hyaluronic acid based dermal fillers for improvement of nasolabial folds in 150 participants (age 44.30±9.97 years) using clinical and objectives assessment methods. In the second part, we performed a comparative study among 5 tested dermal fillers.
Results: Generally, at weeks 2, 12, and 24, 80.6%, 63.3%, and 60.66% of the participants, showed one grade or more improvement in the severity of nasolabial folds respectively. In all visits, the nasolabial folds biophysical parameters as well as the echo density dermis improved significantly compared to baseline. In comparative study, two fillers with the hyaluronic acid concentration of 24 mg/ml, showed the best objective efficacy, while in clinical evaluations, the filler containing mannitol has the best performance in reducing the severity of nasolabial folds showed.
Conclusion: Iranian hyaluronic acid based dermal fillers showed different levels of safety and efficacy for improvement of moderate to severe nasolabial folds, with efficacy.

Abstract
This review study examines the effects of oral collagen supplementation on various biophysical properties of the skin, including hydration, elasticity, and wrinkle reduction. Collagen, as the most abundant structural protein in the skin, plays a vital role in maintaining its firmness, elasticity, and moisture. With aging, collagen production declines, leading to visible signs of aging such as wrinkles, sagging, and dryness of the skin. Additionally, factors like UV radiation and environmental pollutants accelerate collagen degradation, contributing to premature skin aging. In recent years, oral supplements containing hydrolyzed collagen, particularly collagen peptides, have gained significant popularity due to their potential ability to stimulate collagen production and improve skin quality. Various studies indicate that regular consumption of these supplements can significantly increase skin hydration, enhance elasticity, and reduce the depth and number of wrinkles. However, there are notable limitations in the existing studies, including variations in dosage, intervention duration, and collagen sources. Moreover, many of these studies have small sample sizes and short intervention periods, which limit the validity of the results. Additionally, the presence of other ingredients, such as vitamin C and hyaluronic acid in some supplements, makes it challenging to isolate the direct effects of collagen. Despite these challenges, the existing evidence suggests that oral collagen supplementation holds high potential as an effective approach for addressing skin aging. However, further long-term studies with larger sample sizes and more diverse populations are necessary to determine the precise mechanisms and optimal dosage, thereby providing more definitive scientific recommendations.
