| Abstract | ||
| There have been numerous of articles, reports and papers published on non-ablative laser resurfacing, showing the treatment of a wide range of tissue types, laser systems and doses and subject ages. Despite the fact that laser-skin interaction is affected when changing any of the laser parameters, many authors announced good results for the same skin conditions and disorders although different laser beam parameters were used. In their procedures they have adopted trial and error technique – a procedure that could cause some problems and side effects to patients. For random samples taken from the published articles [11-18] on non-ablative resurfacing, the authors used wide range of laser wavelengths (585-1320) nm, number of treatments (1-7) and fluences (2-179) J/cm2. In addition, they used a very wide range of laser pulse durations (6ns-40ms) and some employed cooling while others did not. This article analyzes the results presented by some authors in order to define a better guide line for the use of lasers in this field. | ||
