✦ Synopsis

Preliminary investigation of a frequency-doubled YAG laser (KTP 532 nm) manufactured by Laserscope of Santa Clara was undertaken. Twenty-five patients with either port wine hemangiomas or decorative tattoos were treated with a 532-nm light and the results compared to argon laser at identical power settings. Clinical and histological results were identical between the two lasers.

In an attempt to limit scarring, 51 patients have been treated over a period of 2 years with the argon laser in a dot or pointillistic fashion. Oneto 2-mm dots are blanched at intervals of 1-2 mm with minimal power, and the interspaces are filled in at 12 weeks. Scar-prone areas of the face such as

Despite the increase in laser therapy, concern remains that sublethal treatment of pre-malignant lesions may adversely affect the biological behaviour of surviving cells. Integrin receptors mediate interaction of cells with the extracellular matrix and their occupation leads to focal adhesion kinase
