摘要
The short-pulsed erbium:YAG (Er:YAG) laser is an effective tool for facial rejuvenation. Mild-to-moderate photoinduced facial rhytides and mild atrophic facial scars can be significantly improved with this system. The Er:YAG laser is also an ideal treatment modality for darker-skinned individuals because it is associated with less intense postinflammatory hyperpigmentation following treatment. More recently, longer-pulsed Er:YAG lasers have been introduced that provide for even greater clinical results with enhanced tissue tightening and prolonged stimulation of neocollagenesis.
