## Abstract ## Background and Objectives Determine optimal settings using a long pulse 755 nm alexandrite laser in the treatment of superficial leg veins. ## Study Design\Materials and Methods Fifteen patients with Fitzpatrick skin types IβIII with telangiectasia ranging from 0.2 to 1.0 mm were
Optimization of laser treatment of port wine stains (PWS) is discussed from the standpoint of heat production. Laser wavelength, irradiation time, heat conduction, and external epidermal cooling are the variables considered in conjunction with absorbing and scattering behavior of a PWS-model consist
