Abstract
CO~2~ laser skin resurfacing remains the gold standard for treatment of photoaged facial skin. It can be used onto the neck to further blend in the treated area with nonβtreated, adjacent photodamaged skin as well as improve the superficial textural quality of the neck skin. This article provides an overview of laser skin resurfacing of the neck, including preβoperative evaluation, patient education and selection, laser settings and technique used, postβoperative care, and identification and treatment of possible complications.

## Abstract ## Background and Objectives Ablative fractional resurfacing (AFR) is a new modality for photorejuvenation and acne scars which combines carbon dioxide (CO~2~) laser ablation with fractional photothermolysis. The objective is to evaluate the efficacy and side effects of a new fractiona
## Background and Objective : Laser resurfacing of facial rhytides has become a popular treatment option for many patients with wrinkles, photoaging, and acne scarring. Laser wavelength/pulse duration options and new techniques continue to shorten the healing phase associated with laser skin resurf
The following information is an addendum to the article: The authors would like to state that upon publication of the above referenced paper it was brought to the authors attention that a duplicate figure was used and case referenced from another paper published in the same issue. The paper which h
The carbon dioxide laser has been used to treat various lesions of the head and neck, ranging from carcinomas to hemangiomas, and even including tatoos. A search of the literature does not reveal any reports of the carbon dioxide laser being used to treat lymphangioma. This report discusses the effi
## Abstract ## Background and Objectives A variety of high energy, pulsed, and scanned carbon dioxide lasers are available to perform cutaneous resurfacing. Rhytec has developed a device for skin regeneration that utilizes energy delivered via a burst of nitrogen plasma. This study was undertaken
