โœฆ Synopsis

Argon and C02 lasers have been used to treat 13 patients with well-established keloid scars of the trunk or earlobe. Multiple-bore-hole argon technique and total excision with the C02 laser were attempted. One patient with an earlobe keloid responded to treatment, all other patients had no improvement.

Laser physiology has shown that while wound healing is generally excellent after laser impaction, it nevertheless is delayed. It is thought that this factor may be important in the treatment of hypertrophic and keloid scars. These scars have been treated in a variety of ways with the laser, and the

A report is given on the treatment of keloids and hypertrofic scars using an argon laser. Of the 45 patients who participated, only three patients had a diminishing of over 50%, and 40 patients were classified as obtaining slight improvement, which means a diminishing of between 20 and 50% of the or

Porokeratosis of Mibelli, a disorder of keratinization, has in the past been difficult to treat, especially in its more extensive form. The carbon dioxide laser was used in the treatment of a patient with this disorder. The response was very favorable. Microscopic pathological investigation after t

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

Superficial telangiectasia of the lower extremity in 38 patients was treated with both argon and CO2 lasers. Results after five months revealed no change or worsening of the veins in 49% of the patients and good to excellent improvement or segmentation in 16% of the patients. The most common complic
