Background and Objective: This report presents analytical modelling of the influence of wavelength on the amount of volumetric rate of heat produced in dermal blood vessels by millisecond laser radiation. ## Study designlMaterials and Methods: A new anatomical model is proposed that represents po
Despite steady improvement in the laser treatment of port wine stains (PWS), hypertrophic scarring remains a serious side-effect in approximately 10% of patients. The tunable dye laser (577 nm) has been shown to cause selective vascular destruction in normal and PWS skin. We have treated ten patient
Optimal port wine stain treatment requires the selective absorption of light by the ectatic blood vessels. We investigated whether deeper blood vessels can be coagulated, without damaging other cutaneous structures, by varying the laser beam diameter. The penetration of the light was simulated with
