摘要
BACKGROUND. It has been reported that intense pulsed light is efficacious for rejuvenation of photoaged skin, specifically the improvement of appearance of telangiectases and solar lentigines. OBJECTIVE. The objective was to define the treatment variables for photodamaged facial skin using a newer intense pulsed light system. METHODS. Twenty-three female subjects received three treatments using double-stacked pulses with fluences of 24 and 30 J/cm(2). Response to treatment was evaluated using digital photography. Three signs of photoaging were evaluated: surface texture/roughness, mottled hyperpigmentation, and erythema/telangiectases. RESULTS. There was a shift in clinical grading from more to less severe on all three measures of photoaging. CONCLUSION. Intense pulsed light therapy was efficacious in ameliorating the clinical signs of photoaging. The device was well tolerated with minimal side effects.
