✦ Synopsis

Background and objective:

Sebaceous gland hyperplasia may be treated by cryotherapy, cauterization, topical chemicals, or excision. the major disadvantage of these therapeutic strategies is a considerable risk of postoperative scarring or dyspigmentation. the pulsed dye laser may be an effective and safe alternative treatment option.

Study design and methods:

Our report presents two patients with sebaceous gland hyperplasia who were treated with the pulsed dye-laser (585 nm, 6.5-8 j/cm2, 300-450/microsecond).

Results:

After 2-3 treatment sessions, the lesions were completely gone. to data, no side effects have been observed.

Conclusions:

Based upon our experiences, we recommend the pulsed dye laser as a safe, fast, and minimal straining treatment alternative for hyperplasia of sebaceous glands.
