The therapeutic landscape of dermatology has been significantly enriched by
the advent of laser technology, making it possible to address both medical
and cosmetic skin conditions with precision and efficacy. This volume provides
an up-to-date, illustrated synopsis of the therapeutic applications of
lasers, shedding light on their efficacy and safety across a spectrum of dermatological
conditions, from keloids, viral warts, skin malignancies, and infantile
hemangioma to a wide range of cosmetic indications such as skin
tightening, rejuvenation, resurfacing, and removal of birthmarks, pigmentation,
and unwanted hair.
Authored by experts with years of clinical experience, this volume reflects
the depth of knowledge and expertise that the field of dermatology has to
offer. Each chapter meticulously focuses on newer advances and techniques,
aiming not only to enlighten the reader but also to inspire innovation and a
forward-thinking approach in their clinical practice. Since the 1960s, dermatologists
have progressed from microsecond to nanosecond to picosecond
pulse widths and from fully ablative lasers to fractional photothermolysis
with diffractive handpieces. Laser removal of disfiguring facial birthmarks
such as port-wine stain and nevus of Ota can now be successfully achieved
with minimal scarring. We devote a chapter on special considerations of
lasers in the pediatric population. This book serves as an essential guide to
seasoned dermatologists seeking to refine their laser techniques and to novices
eager to learn about the latest laser- and energy-based devices.
