## SUMMARY The pulsed dye laser (PDL) was developed based on the concept of selective photothermolysis. Using a wavelength of light well absorbed by the target and a pulse duration short enough to spatially confine thermal injury, specific vascular injury could be produced. While the PDL revolution
285 various pigmented skin lesions from 282 patients were treated over the past 2 years and 10 months using the square and uniform intensity laser equipment. Also, laser effects on 44 skin specimens were studied histologically. The treated clinical lesions included 111 pigmented nevi, 97 nevi spili,
