Pain (Aches) 05/01/2012 - "Further, it has the added benefit of less pain and improved cosmetics." 07/01/2011 - "LESS/NOTES choice was influenced by a desire of improved cosmetics (82%) and lower pain (44%). " 01/01/2006 - "Several recent randomized studies have proved that laparoscopic technique is feasible, safe and has been associated with better cosmetics, less pain, faster recovery, lower incidence of infectious complications, and shorter postoperative stay. " 09/25/2023 - "Laparoscopic surgery has evolved with technological advances in many aspects and increasing demand for its benefits in cosmetics, fast recovery, reduced complication rates and pain. " 10/11/2021 - "For surgeons, the order was 'stability' (p = 0.004 **), 'movement' (p = 0.225), 'pain' (p = 0.509), 'strength' (p = 0.007 **) and 'cosmetics' (p = 0.181). "
2.	Neoplasms (Cancer) 03/01/2017 - "To strike an optimal balance is a challenging task, to achieve 'cancer cure' with maximum preservation of function and cosmetics. " 03/01/2000 - "Although the initial studies using this assay were conducted using cancer chemopreventive agents, the HECC Assay can also be used to evaluate other types of drugs, personal care products, environmental chemicals, and potential toxicants. " 10/19/2023 - "Due to its vast potential, NN has been widely used as a capable transportation system of many therapeutic active substances, from cancer therapy, vaccine delivery, cosmetics, and bio-sensing nanocarrier drugs to genes. " 09/01/2023 - "LCR value for Pb, As and Cd was below 1 0 -6 which was lower than the permissible limit and nail cosmetics may not possess lifetime cancer risk. " 04/01/2023 - "Dermal cancer risk for eye pencils has also been calculated and for Pb, Cr, Ni, and As; the values were found within the acceptable ranges of 10-6-10-4. It is suggested that the allowable limit of all toxic elements in cosmetics must be established. "
3.	Cicatrix (Scar) 03/01/2021 - "After the procedure we observed an overall improvement in the quality of the scar tissue, in the function of mimic features, in the symmetry and cosmetics of the lower third of the nose. " 12/01/2023 - "We recommend this flap as incision is always away from the face, the scars are hidden beneath collars and the patients are very comfortable with good cosmetics and functional outcomes.\." 08/01/2021 - "The surgical toolbox now is completed by adding a further approach: through a 5- to7-cm skin incision in the right anterior axillary line, the third interspace is used for a minimally invasive aortic valve surgery providing striking exposition of the aortic valve and resulting in superior cosmetics with nearly no visible scars. " 08/01/2018 - "The aim is mainly to improve cosmetics by avoiding a visible scar on the neck. " 02/01/2018 - "This approach offers the advantage of preserving ligamentotaxis, which facilitates the reduction, and the small scar improves the cosmetics. "
4.	Postoperative Pain 01/01/2014 - "Even for smaller size cases, Re-VATS, which is technically feasible, safe and effective with better cosmetics and minor postoperative pain, should be a strong contender as priority treatment." 01/16/2017 - "The advantages of improved cosmetics, decreased postoperative pain and blood loss continue to attract patients from different surgical fields. " 09/01/2021 - "No difference regarding peri‑ and post-operative complications could be found and no statements regarding the length of hospital admission, post-operative pain and cosmetics could be made due to substantial heterogeneity. " 01/01/2021 - "The NOSE method following laparoscopic right colon resection was a more advantageous method in terms of cosmetics and post-operative pain than transabdominal specimen extraction." 10/01/2020 - "Transareolar thoracoscopic pulmonary bullectomy for treatment of PSP is feasible and safe, with a high degree of satisfaction for postoperative pain and cosmetics. "
5.	Hyperpigmentation 02/20/2023 - "The experimental results indicated that (Citrus unshiu X Citrus sinensis) X Citrus reticulata, Citrus reticulata, and ((Citrus unshiu X Citrus sinensis) X Citrus reticulata) X Citrus reticulara are potential candidates with anti-melanogenesis activity for use as cosmetics and pharmaceutical agents against skin hyperpigmentation." 12/17/2022 - "The information contained in this article is crucial for the cosmetics and medical industries, in order to show new directions for the effective search for natural anti-melanogenesis products (with satisfactory efficiency and safety) to treat and cure hyperpigmentation." 03/01/2022 - "Cyanobacteria Secondary Metabolites as Biotechnological Ingredients in Natural Anti-Aging Cosmetics: Potential to Overcome Hyperpigmentation, Loss of Skin Density and UV Radiation-Deleterious Effects." 01/01/2020 - "morbiferus and DMW-1 may be useful ingredients for cosmetics and therapeutic agents for skin hyperpigmentation disorders." 09/17/2018 - "Therefore, the ES extract could be a promising therapeutic agent to treat hyperpigmentation and as an ingredient for skin-whitening cosmetics."
