“…Their results also demonstrated an improvement in the quality of life of patients after the course of treatment. 23 Results of a double center retrospective study depicted that laser therapy was an effective method of treatment for skin hyperpigmentation and up to five laser sessions were necessary to achieve the clinical endpoint, ie, complete hyperpigmentation regression. 24 Although in the aforementioned study, clinical results were similar to the literature data, authors applied a Visual Analog Scale (VAS) to the patients at the three-month follow-up to measure their contentment.…”

Purpose Esthetic medicine is a rapidly developing field of medicine that is not only beneficial in terms of external appearance, but also significantly improves overall quality of life. Currently, pigmented and vascular skin lesions are more prevalent due to multiple environmental factors and are a characteristic manifestation of skin aging. The development of modern laser therapy has contributed to the successful management of multiple skin conditions. The aim of our study was to show the effect of concomitant reduction of both vascular and hyperpigmented skin lesions located on the facial area after repetitive 532 nm laser therapy and to emphasize that the detection of such observation was possible due to the implementation of System of Skin Analysis and Assessment. Patients and Methods We retrospectively analyzed 100 patients’ records with “VISIA” Skin Analysis System after 532nm laser therapy. Results Laser therapy significantly decreased VISIA scores for all tested lesions, ie, macules, pigmented and vascular lesions (p<0.0001 for all). The efficacy of laser treatment was not significantly different regarding skin phototype (p>0.05) and did not correlate with age of participants (p>0.05). The more laser sessions were performed, the higher improvement in vascular lesion VISIA scores was observed (r=0.26, p=0.0097). Conclusion 532 nm laser therapy is effective regarding vascular and hyperpigmented skin lesions located on the facial area. The System of Skin Analysis and Assessment is a good tool to test the treatment efficacy during regular follow-up procedure.

“…Currently, the safety and effectiveness of the use of laser methods does not have a reliable evidence base and is at the research stage. 1,[10][11][12] Clinical case: darker hyperpigmentation and increased lesion area in a 24-year-old patient with lichen planus pigmentosusinversus after laser therapy of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation using an Alex/Qsw laser. Later, the patient developed single typical lichenoid papules with localization on the skin of the inner surface of the forearms (Figure 1A).…”

Growing popularity of laser treatment has understandably resulted in increased incidence of potential complications. The analysis of complications, taking into account the causes of their occurrence, is of particular interest. The identification of etiological factors and the development of a step‐by‐step prophylactic algorithm with their consideration is the way to reduce the number of possible complications in future practice. In this article, we present a classification of the causes of complications associated with various types of laser procedures. This classification was developed on the basis of a review of last 20 years' literature and our own experience in a network of clinics “Linline” in Russia. We identified six groups of the etiological classification of laser complications: errors of patient selection, errors of treatment tactics, wrong choice of device and technology, neglect of treatment protocol, inadequate post‐procedural care, individual response of the patient. The causes of all specified groups of complication, except the last one, are preventable causes.
