Severe actinic elastosis of the facial skin. Deeply furrowed, radial and horizontal wrinkles are formed, resulting in the rhomboid skin field in places.
Severe actinic elastosis: detail
Elastosis actinica. supraorbital elastosis in a 71-year-old female patient. discreet, increased wrinkling in the area of the lesion.
elastosis actinica. deep rhomboid wrinkles, with bulging skin relief, with pale yellowish skin discoloration. yellowish infiltrates can be detected when the skin is tightened. at the right edge of the picture brownish skin discoloration (lentigines seniles).
elastosis actinica. extensive, cobblestone-like, yellowish transformation of the surface relief with deep wrinkling. isolated black comedones or comedo-like follicular keratoses. increased sensitivity to light.
Severe actinic elastosis of the facial skin: extensive thickening of the skin with whitish plaques and comedones.
Elastosis actinica. deep wrinkles and bulging skin relief of the perioral region of a 69-year-old female patient. deep furrows starting from the corners of the mouth are also visible, which very much hinder the complete closure of the lips, so that saliva is repeatedly leaking ("drooling").
Elastosis actinica. deep radial wrinkles and bulging, rhomboidal skin relief of the chin region in a 75-year-old female patient. note the vitiligo of the red of the lips and the immediately adjacent lip skin.
Elastosis actinica. increased, deep wrinkle formation with rhomboid skin fielding. chronic cheilitis actinica with blurred lip red border.
Actinic elastosis: Pronounced solar/actinic elastosis with deep wrinkles. Bds.Perlèche triggered by the change in the mouth wind clarichitectonics. The superimposed mouth angle wrinkles cause a suction effect to the inside, which leads to constant wetting.
Actinic elastosis: Pronounced solar/actinic elastosis with deep perioral, radial wrinkle formation; actinic elastosis of the red of the lips with bulging wrinkles
Actinic elastosis: Detailed view of the deep elastotic furrows with comedones.
Elastosis actinica: severe flat elastosis of the skin with whitish "deposits" and rhomboid wrinkling.
Elastosis actinica: Incident light microscopy (forehead region): dense yellowish, partly lobular plaques (senile sebaceous gland hyperplasia), interfollicular, whitish opaque areas (elastosis), transparent horny layer, ectatic vessels of the subpapillary horizontal plexus as well as rarefication of the point capillaries.
Elastosis actinica: Incident light microscopy (neck region): parallel striations of the skin field (increased transepidermal water loss), compact garland-shaped and abruptly breaking, brown pigment stripes (atrophic reticules without double contour) as well as ectatic vessels of the subpapillary plexus.
elastosis actinica. atrophic surface epithelium. cloggy degenerated collagenous connective tissue in the upper and middle dermis. in the upper dermis completely unstructured, basophilic, elastotic masses. the elastotic changes extend finger-like to the sweat gland bed.
Elastosis actinica. enlargement of a section of the deeper dermis with incised sweat gland (in the middle) and sebaceous gland (right picture). filigree, basophilic elastotic changes reach up to the glandular bed.
Elastosis actinica. Low-echo band below the entry echo.
Elastosis actinica, a clumsy, elastotic material in the immediate vicinity of a capillary.
elastosis actinica. elastic fiber. elastic material (eM).
