TLDR The 532 nm laser effectively reduces facial vascular and pigmented lesions, with the VISIA system reliably assessing treatment results.
The retrospective trial involving 100 patients (86 women and 14 men) with vascular facial lesions found that 532 nm laser therapy significantly reduces both vascular and pigmented skin lesions on the face. The VISIA Skin Analysis System was used to objectively assess skin lesions before and after each laser procedure, proving to be a reliable tool for treatment efficacy evaluation. The study also found that the number of laser sessions positively correlated with the reduction of vascular lesions, but not pigmented lesions. Skin phototype did not significantly affect laser efficacy. No adverse effects were reported. The VISIA system, while beneficial for tailoring therapy, is limited to facial area evaluation and requires special equipment and software.
