Comparison of the Cutaneous Thermal Signatures Over Twenty-Four Hours With a Picosecond Alexandrite Laser Using a Flat or Fractional Optic

摘要

Introduction: This study explored immediate heat signatures with different passing techniques and the delayed thermal data points with the picosecond Alexandrite laser with the 6mm flat and fractional optic during and after treatment. We sought to clarify the immediate effects of heating and understand the thermal and short term clinical difference when using these optics.
