Rosacea is a chronic relapsing skin disorder of a multifactorial nature, which affects up to 5% of the population in Russia. Great social significance of rosacea is due to a marked decrease in the quality of life of the patient in the absence of continuous monitoring and supporting corrective therapy. A significant role in the pathogenesis of the disease belongs to vascular pathology and immune disorders. Currently, local laser therapy with a neodymium laser with a wavelength of 1064 nm seems to be the most optimal from the point of view of efficiency and tolerability, the absence of systemic side effects and also having no limitations on the skin type of the patient’s skin.

It is known that neurotic disorders can be independent risk factors for the development of complications in patients with cardiovascular diseases. This requires the creation of new rehabilitation programs that include not only medicines but also physiotherapy. To this end, an analysis was made of the effect of complex treatment, including visual color impulse therapy, on the psychoemotional state of 80 patients with cardiovascular diseases, hypertensive disease and coronary heart disease, who also have asthenic-depressive symptoms. In this case, patients in two control groups received standard drug therapy, and in the two main groups received additional color pulse therapy from the «Mellon» apparatus. Dynamics of the psychoemotional state of patients was studied with the help of a test that determines the quantitative changes in the state of health, activity and mood, as well as the stress index that characterizes the regulation of the heart rhythm under stress. Prior to the start of treatment, functional disintegration of regulatory mechanisms was characteristic for all patients, which was accompanied by psychoemotional disorders that indirectly reflected the state of highly organized nervous processes in the cerebral cortex, which altered the values of SI stress index indicators and the «well-being, activity, mood» test. The regression statistical analysis was used in this work. As a result, the indications and contraindications to the use of this method of treatment were determined. After the course of complex treatment, including drug and visual color impulse therapy, positive dynamics in the patients’ state was revealed, which indicates an increase in the functional capabilities of their body, and also, given the good tolerability of visual color impulse therapy, the feasibility of including this method in complex treatment at any stage of rehabilitation.

Application in complex treatment of the temporomandibular joint pain dysfunction syndrome in vocalists infrared irradiation and ultrasonic treatment eliminates the pain and increased tone of the masticatory muscles in a short time, which increases the amplitude of movements of the mandible and the functional capabilities of the temporomandibular joint with increased professional workload. The proposed course of physiotherapy procedures allows for successful rehabilitation in a complex of therapeutic measures and to improve the effectiveness of treatment of the temporomandibular joint pain dysfunction syndrome, which is especially important for the quality of life of people involved in the vocals.

The results of application of transcranial magnetic influences and synchronized ophthalmic chromotherapy in the complex program of restorative treatment of 120 sportsmen of fighting sports with peripheral dystrophies of the retina are reflected in the article. The authors proved that the combined use of transcranial magnetic effects and synchronized ophthalmic chromotherapy lead to a greater extent than transcerebral low-frequency magnetotherapy as a monomethod, causes a pronounced psychocorrecting effect, which manifests itself in increasing emotional stability and resistance to stress and reducing anxiety (according to color Lusher’s test), as well as in improving the state of health of activity and mood (according to the SAN test).

A retrospective assessment of the effectiveness of the application of a combination of radio-frequency radiation (needle lifting) and injections of platelet-enriched autologous human plasma was made in the correction of involuntary changes in the skin of the face and neck of 57 patients aged 40-65 years with signs of chronic aging and photodamage of the skin. Dermatological status was assessed before and after the reparative correction of involuntary changes in the skin through morphostructural analysis of the skin using the method of ultrasonography, visual analog scales, photography, studying the quality of life, and assessing patients’ satisfaction with the used treatment. To objectify the results, they were compared according to age: in the group of patients up to 49 years old and over 49 years of age. As a result of the application of the combined treatment method, the degree of manifestation of clinical signs of skin aging (the qualitative characteristics of the skin and the degree of wrinkles) markedly decreased, which contributed to an improvement in the quality of life of this category of patients. More than 90% of patients regardless of age noted good/very good efficacy and comfort of the combined method. Combined method of correction of involuntary changes in the face and neck skin, based on a combination of cellular technology with platelet activation by autologous thrombin and effect on the skin by needle lifting is a highly effective method of correcting involuntary skin changes.
