Abstract
Scanning electron microscope findings of solar elastosis were compared with those of normal dermis in specimens digested by hyaluronidase and autoclaving. Solar elastosis showed amorphous masses and broad fibers with irregular shapes and sizes in specimens digested by hyaluronidase; it showed only fibrous structures in those after autoclaving. Apparently the origin of solar elastosis is elastic tissue.This publication has 10 references indexed in Scilit:
