Abstract

Microdermabrasion plus low-fluence QS Nd:YAG laser treatment is a simple, non-invasive procedure with minimal risk, no recovery time, and long-lasting remission. Treatment works on all skin phototypes in just two to three treatment sessions. Subject compliance with skin care was excellent, probably due to the dramatic improvement observed within 4 weeks.
