Abstract Background and Objective Er: YAG lasers are known to effectively ablate human
skin with minimal thermal damage to subjacent dermal tissue. We have investigated whether …

Abstract Background and Objective Deep coagulation of skin collagen by Er: YAG laser
repetitive pulses has been predicted by previous theoretical models and later demonstrated …

Abstract Background and Objective To evaluate histologically the characteristics of repetitive
Er: YAG laser exposure of skin in combination with cryogen spray cooling (CSC), and its …

Abstract Background and Objective Er: YAG lasers are known to superficially ablate skin and
other tissues with minimal thermal coagulation zones. The ablation efficacy and thus the …

Abstract Background and Objectives The long pulse 1,064‐nm Nd: YAG laser is used
clinically to decrease rhytid formation. The dermal level at which this change occurs has not …

Abstract Background and Objective To compare the in vivo histologic effects of the carbon
dioxide (CO2) and erbium: yttrium aluminum garnet (Er: YAG) lasers. To ascertain the effects …

Human skin fibroblasts were subjected to treatment with a Neodymium: YAG laser at 1060
nm with varying levels of energy determined by a reproducible method of dosimetry. DNA …

Previous studies demonstrated that pulsed 2.94 μ m Er-YAG laser radiation allows a precise
etching of organic tissue with only minimal thermal damage. This makes the Er-YAG laser a …

Using a pulsed XeCl excimer laser (308 nm) and a pulsed Er: YAG laser (2,940 nm), we
investigated skin ablation as a function of pulse number, radiant energy, and repetition rate …

Abstract Background and Objective The Er: YAG laser is of special interest in dermatology
and cosmetic surgery since it ablates and cuts tissue with surgical precision with minimal …
