摘要: As skin resurfacing has become more common, the number of patients developing post-treatment hypopigmentation increased. No effective treatment for this complication been developed. Some hypopigmented disorders, including vitiligo, have treated with excimer laser. We used XeCl laser to successfully treat a 78-year-old woman perioral leukoderma following CO(2) resurfacing. The repigmentation was stable at least 16 months. Larger prospective studies new therapeutic intervention are recommended evaluate its efficacy and long-term stability.
