    Abstract This quick guide demonstrates the value of dermoscopy before, during, and after the treatment of a wide variety of vascular and other skin lesions with laser and/or intense pulsed light (IPL). The coverage includes the treatment of benign pigmented pathologies, melanocytic nevi, seborrheic dermatoses, solar lentigines, telangiectasias, flat angiomas, port-wine scars, other vascular pathologies, keloids and hypertrophic scars, acne and post-traumatic scars, and tattoos. Practically oriented information is also supplied on the dermoscopic technique, the principles of use of lasers and IPL in dermatology, laser–tissue interactions, and types of laser. This will help the reader to comprehend the importance of lasers and IPL in clinical practice and provide excellent preparation for the use of dermoscopy to visualize the targets to be hit with laser or IPL. The inclusion of more than 100 color photos stored before, during, and after dermoscopy-aided laser or IPL treatment documents the results that can be achieved even in pathologies that were very difficult to cure until several years ago.

    Abstract Background: Rosacea is an inflammatory condition of the face characterized in its early stages by flushing, erythema and telangiectasias.
    Objectives: We evaluate the efficacy of long-pulsed Nd:YAG laser on erythematousteleangiectasic rosacea (ETR).
    Methods: In a retrospective case study of 21 patients (14F, 7M) with an average age of 29 years (range 19-41), were treated with two sessions at a distance of one month, with phototype up to III (5 phototype 1, 14 phototype II, 2 phototype III) with a fluence of 20 J/cm
    Results: We observed a reduction of the erythematous component between 50% and 80% after two sessions, with an average pain score attributed to the treatment, measured by visual analogue scale (VAS), of 3.
    Conclusion: In this case series in which Nd:YAG laser had been used with a "'in motion" technique, we observed a reduction of the side effects and pain.

    Abstract Background: The options for treating pseudogynecomastia are limited, and there is a growing demand for noninvasive breast fat reduction. We evaluated the efficacy and safety of a laser-assisted lipolysis (LAL) device emitting 1444 nm for the treatment of pseudogynecomastia.
    Methods: A total of 9 male patients diagnosed with pseudogynecomastia underwent laser procedure with a Nd:YAG laser emitting at 1444 nm. The goal was to generate adequate heat propagation and thermal action in the dermis as homogeneous as possible to induce fat cell lipolysis. The results were clinically evaluated by comparing pictures at baseline and 4 months later.
    Results: An independent comparison of baseline and post-treatment pictures by a physician evaluator 4 months after treatment revealed significant improvement in all patients. Three subjects (33%) showed grade 4 improvement; 4 (44%) showed grade 3 improvement, and 2 (22%) showed grade 2 improvement. Breast sizes decreased in all patients 4 months after 1444-nm LAL. All patients experienced an incident-free postoperative period.
    Conclusions: The LAL procedure performed in this study using 1444-nm Nd:YAG laser appears to be a very effective/comfortable outpatient solution to the problem for patients. It has proven a safe procedure, and all subjects in the study experienced a significant clinical improvement regarding their pseudogynecomastia, with a decrease in breast volume and visible skin contraction.

    Abstract Background: Patients with keloids are often younger than 30 years old and have darker skin.
    Aim: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of CO
    Methods: A total of 21 dark patients (five men and 16 women) presented with the earlobe and ear helix keloids, with a mean age of 30.5 (±6.7) years and with phototype between III-VI, were enrolled. In order to improve their earlobe and helix keloids, all patients underwent a single session of CO
    Results: The majority of the patients treated show complete remission of keloid lesions. Clinical photographs show a visible aesthetic improvement of several types of keloids in dark subjects.
    Conclusions: Our data demonstrate that this combined laser therapeutic protocol appears to be effective and well tolerated for the management of earlobe and helix keloids in dark subjects, with no high recurrence rate and avoiding the adverse effects and lengthy recovery time.

    Abstract Background: Body contouring is a significant area of dermatologic and plastic surgery. Surgical procedures, like surgical lipectomy, and less invasive procedures, such as various liposuction techniques, are the two main ways to reduce fat.
    Aim: Our study showed that 1444 nm Nd:YAG laser-assisted lipolysis used with appropriate and specific parameters effectively destroys adipose tissue avoiding these risks and determining a safe clinical application.
    Method: A subcutaneous, 1444 nm Nd:YAG laser was used on 132 patients (range, 18-73 years; 109 women and 23 men with Fitzpatrick skin phototypes ranging between II and V) requiring body and face contouring. All patients were photographed for documentation. Digital clinical photography was taken under as near identical conditions as possible at baseline (pre-treatment), and 16 weeks post-treatment. The 5-point Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale (GAIS) was recorded immediately after treatment and at their final assessment session (4 months). Adverse events were monitored.
    Results: On the basis of the investigator-evaluated GAIS scale, the total GAIS scores showed satisfactory results. Clinician assessment from the clinical photography showed good efficacy and visible aesthetic results for body and face areas. No serious or unexpected adverse side effects were recorded, and transient pain, oedema, erythema and slight induration resolved within the first week of treatment.
    Conclusions: The 1444 nm Nd:YAG laser is a new tool for performing lipolysis, and this study reports its effectiveness and safety.
