Use of lasers in dermatology is increasing since their utilization can reduce the after surgery care and therefore hospitalization that patients require. Such laser surgery is especially useful in the treatment of complaints such as birth marks. It is also used in cosmetic surgery and has proved effective in the removal of tattoos. "Practical Aspects of the Laser in Dermatology" draws on over 20 years of experience from the author whose clinic has successfully treated more than 20,000 cases of cutaneous lesions using laser surgery. The book offers a total reference source for theoretical and practical applications and a wide range of full colour illustrated case reports. It should also encourage the reader to develop their own techniques.
