“…Most studies regarding 1927 nm fractional TFL have focused on the treatment of melasma and PIH, suggesting it is a safe and effective treatment option [7,17,18]. In particular, in PIH treatment, whose pathogenesis and histologic features are similar to Riehl's melanosis, TFL was reported to show a promising effect.…”

“…18 At all time points analyzed (1, 2, and 6 months), the mean Melasma Area and Severity Index (MASI) score was significantly improved (p , .005 for all). 18 Three percent of patients experienced PIH, and 2% of patients had reoccurrence of melasma. 18 In the other study, 20 women (mean age, 41.1 years [range, 30-51 years]) with FST II to IV underwent 1 treatment with the 1,927 nm laser (10 or 20 mJ/cm 2 [60%-70% coverage]).…”
