The DERMatology INFOrmation NETwork (DERM/INFONET) of the American Academy of Dermatology has become a reality. DERM/INFONET consists of a number of data bases providing information and educational programs for the dermatologist. Currently the components are: DERM/MLS (Medical Literature Search), DERM/RX (dermatologic therapy), DERM/USP (United States Pharmacopeia data base), DERM/ALLERGENS (Food and Drug Administration and Environmental Protection Agency Listings of allergens); Melanoma Prognosis Model; Electronic Mail; Bulletin Board; Meetings Calendar; ICD/CPT (International Classification of Diseases/Current Procedural Terminology) codes; AAD Membership/Committee Directories; and Dermatology Quiz. Additional data bases are planned. As audiovisual and alphanumeric communication systems evolve, newer opportunities for enhancing the DERM/INFONET Biomedical Communication Network will undoubtedly provide even greater opportunities for aiding the dermatologist in delivering state-of-the art management for their patients.

A 45-year-old man requested treatment with Thermage for skin tightening. He was treated with the new Thermage CPT system and received several facial burns due to failure of the dielectric membrane. It may be contraindicated to treat male patients with this system.

The aim of this questionnaire-based study was to measure the level of appreciation, practice patterns, and side effects of monopolar radiofrequency treatment among Korean dermatologists practicing the most updated monopolar radiofrequency device (Thermage FLX, Thermage Inc., Hayward, California). According to a total of 52 surveys analyzed, this latest device (Thermage FLX) was considered more effective (57.4%), faster with reduced treatment time (66.0%), and more painful (25.5%) compared with Thermage CPT. Asians in their 40s were considered to benefit most and skin thickness continued to be the most important determinant in terms of responsiveness to Thermage FLX. The interval between treatments was mainly 1 year (51.9%) with the 600 REP 4 cm2 new total tip being preferred by 86.5% of Thermage FLX users. The treatment energy and the complication rate of Thermage was lower than what we reported in 2017 and 2011 which is likely due to the optimized energy delivery of Thermage FLX and the subsequent gentle treatment. We hope our updated data enable dermatologists to better utilize monopolar radiofrequency in their practice.
