The standard wavelength in the treatment of port-wine stains (PWS) with the pulsed dye laser is 585 nm. In many cases, the response to therapy is not adequate despite many treatments, depending partly on vessels out of reach of the laser. Longer wavelengths penetrate deeper into the dermis, but are
## SUMMARY Previous studies assessing the treatment of portβwine stains (PWS) with the 585 nm pulsed dye laser have relied on either subjective clinical assessment or __in vivo__ measurement of skin colour alone. The aim of the present retrospective study was to develop an objective method of asses
## Abstract ## Background and Objectives The objective of this study was to compare the efficacy and safety of cryogen spray cooled laser treatment (CSCβLT) at wavelengths of 585 nm vs. 595 nm for port wine stain (PWS) birthmarks in a large series of patients. ## Study Design/Materials and Method
## Abstract ## Background and Objectives The conventional pulsedβdye laser (wavelength 585 nm, pulse duration 0.5 milliseconds) is seen as the standard treatment for port wine stains (PWS). Using the pulsedβdye laser at wavelengths of 590, 595, and 600 nm and at varying pulse durations of 1.5β40 m
