Atrophoderma Vermiculata Successfully Treated by 595 nm Dye Laser and Carbon Dioxide Laser
نویسندگان
چکیده
The treatment of atrophoderma vermiculatum is challenging. A 7-year-old girl had a unilateral atrophic skin lesion on her right cheek, which was diagnosed as unilateral atrophoderma vermiculata. She was treated by carbon dioxide and 595 nm pulsed dye laser and carbon dioxide laser. This resulted in prevention of the lesional progression with favorable cosmetic appearance of the skin.

Laser treatment of atrophoderma vermiculata.
Atrophoderma vermiculata is a rare genodermatosis with usual onset in childhood, characterized by a "honey-combed" reticular atrophy of the cheeks. The course is generally slow, with progressive worsening. We report successful treatment of 2 patients by means of the carbon dioxide and 585 nm pulsed dye lasers.
متن کاملComparison of 585 nm with 595 nm pulsed dye laser in the treatment of warts
Background and aim : The clinical management of verrucae vulgaris is often challenging and no treatment is always effective. Early studies have suggested that pulsed-dye laser (PDL) may be highly effective in the treatment of verrucae through obliteration of dilated vessels in papillary dermis. The objective of this study was to compare safety and efficacy of 585 nm with 595 nm PDL in the...
متن کاملA Comparative Study Between 595-Nm Pulsed Dye Laser with Cutaneous Compression and Cryotherapy in the Treatment of Solar Lentigines
Background: Although cryotherapy is still the first-line therapy for solar lentigines, due to side effects such as post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH), especially in patients with darker skin types, pigment specific lasers should be considered as initial treatment. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of cryotherapy in comparison with 595-nm pulsed dye laser (PDL)...
متن کامل"Drug-resistant granuloma faciale": treatment with carbon dioxide-GaAs laser.
Granuloma faciale (GF), also known as "eosinophilic granuloma," is a rare benign leukocytoclastic vasculitis which most commonly occurs on the face of middle-aged Caucasian males. Clinically, GF appears as single or multiple, slowly growing, reddish-brown papules, nodules or plaques which may be cosmetically unpleasant. Its pathogenesis is unknown and GF is notoriously resistant to treatments. ...
