Title: [FCP 13] Effect of 1,064nm Nd:YAG laser toning treatment for photoaged skin in Korean middle aged females. ; Case reports and literature review
Abstract: Skin aging, presenting with photodamage may cause cosmetic disfigurements in the middle -aged patients and prompt patients to seek advice about treatment. Photoaging of the skin leads to epidermal abnormalities, such as lentigines and the degeneration of collagen, which results in the formation of fine wrinkles and telangiectasias. Laser toning using low-fluence 1064-nm Q-switched neodymium-doped yttrium aluminum laser has gained popularity in the treatment of photoagingassociated mottled pigmentation. Moreover, there are evidences of nonablative rejuvenation effect of collagen production. Here, we report the clinical and subjective outcomes of three middle aged female patients with long term of 1064nm Nd:YAG laser toning treatment. In initial visit, their main concerns were hyperpigmented macules on face. The patients received treatment by 3-4 weeks interval. In each visit, the clinical outcome was evaluated with digital photograph, clinician assessment and patient global assessment(PGA). All patients showed improvement of pigmentation and dyschromia in the early follow ups and in the late follow ups, response was shown in fine wrinkle, textures and telangiectasia. A treatment with 1,064nm Nd:YAG laser toning may be an effective noninvasive rejuvenation option for photoaged skin in Korean middle-aged female patients.
