This book deals with a new laser technology which is particularly suited to removal of skin blemishes and benign lesions about the face, trunk and limbs. Since the technology changes rapidly and pulse dye lasers are the newest and most controllable modality available, they allow precise control of depth of incision and tissue damage. The clinical experience and research data in this book derive from the Laser Center at Boston University, USA, which is recognized worldwide.
