This study concluded that laser hair removal using Alexandrite laser emitting red and infrared light appears safe and does not significantly affect the disease activity of Systemic lupus erythematosus.

In this reported case, a 13-year-old boy with alopecia areata experienced complete lesion resolution and varied hair regrowth across different laser treatment parameters after three months of combined oral prednisone, topical ointment, and CO2 fractional laser therapy.

This study found that nonablative Er:YAG laser therapy effectively improved hair appearance for patients with androgenetic alopecia, with most participants reporting increased satisfaction and no adverse reactions, following six biweekly sessions.

This narrative review explores contraindications for fractional CO2 laser treatment of aesthetic disorders, highlighting conditions such as pigmentary disorders, active skin conditions, photosensitivity, and recent isotretinoin use, emphasizing the importance of careful patient selection to minimize risks and enhance safety and effectiveness.

In this study, both fractional carbon dioxide laser therapy and cryotherapy were found to be effective and safe for treating patchy alopecia areata, showing similar efficacy in improving hair growth compared to untreated control patches.

This systematic review found that light and laser therapies, including excimer and erbium-glass lasers, generally increase hair density and diameter in various types of alopecia, with particularly notable effects in androgenic alopecia but limited efficacy in telogen effluvium.

This clinical trial found that transdermal delivery of 5-Fluorouracil using fractional CO2 laser resulted in a significantly better treatment response in alopecia areata patients compared to intralesional injections of the same drug, with a greater reduction in the Severity of Alopecia Tool Score.

This study evaluated the effect of 308 nm excimer laser on alopecia areata, reporting that among 34 patches treated, 13% showed excellent response and 67% demonstrated moderate to good response, as assessed by dermoscopic indicators of disease remission and regrowth.

This study found that intralesional triamcinolone was more effective than the 308 nm Excimer laser in achieving >75% hair regrowth in patients with localized alopecia areata over 12 weeks.

This systematic review suggests that laser treatments, especially low-level laser therapy and excimer lasers, may be effective for hair regrowth, though further large-scale studies are needed for validation.

This case report describes a healthy Thai male who developed severe folliculitis following diode laser hair removal, which improved significantly with prednisolone and benzoyl peroxide treatment.

In this interventional study on female-pattern hair loss, researchers found that fractional CO2 laser therapy alone improved hair growth, as evidenced by increased hair count, thickness, density, and patient satisfaction compared to saline controls. However, the precise mechanisms behind these effects require further investigation.

Subcision is the most efficient, cost-effective, and safest treatment for post-acne boxcar scarring in skin of color.

In this interventional clinical study, 15 patients with scalp alopecia areata were treated with excimer laser weekly for 3 months, resulting in 26.7% achieving complete hair regrowth, while 46.7% showed no hair regrowth, indicating varied effectiveness of the treatment.

This study at Al-Azhar University Hospitals found that combining a fractional CO2 laser or microneedling with topical 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) is more effective and safe for treating vitiligo than using either treatment alone, offering a new therapeutic option for patients.

In this study, treatment of unwanted hair with 755 nm alexandrite laser in 14 patients showed a decrease in excess hair at the armpit and thigh areas, with a 75% accuracy rate in hair density estimation using Monte Carlo modeling.

In this study, vitiligo patients treated with a combination of fractional CO2 laser or microneedling followed by topical 5-Fluorouracil experienced more effective and safe outcomes compared to using either method alone.

Fractionated laser therapy, especially erbium-glass laser, effectively increases hair thickness in people with hair loss but doesn't increase the number of hairs.

In this study, the researchers found no superiority of combining 308-nm excimer laser with intralesional corticosteroid over corticosteroid alone for treating frontal fibrosing alopecia, and reported side effects such as erythema and postinflammatory hyperpigmentation in both treatment groups.

This study evaluated the effectiveness of a 675 nm laser device on facial acne scars in patients with darker skin types, finding that 67% reported excellent improvement and 33% reported good improvement, with significant enhancements in skin texture and appearance after five treatments.

This study reported that therapeutic make-up significantly improves the long-term quality of life for patients with facial dermatoses, showing a sustained benefit one year after application, particularly in younger patients.

This case report describes the first use of photobiomodulation therapy with a continuous wave red laser (660 nm) as monotherapy for alopecia areata, resulting in significant hair regrowth within 7 days, though further research is needed for conclusive evidence.

This study found that for patients with moderate-to-severe chronic hand eczema, combining fractional CO2 laser with halometasone cream was more effective than using halometasone cream alone, with a higher treatment success rate and fewer relapses, though skin pigmentation was a common side effect.

This study found that combining fractional CO2 laser treatment with platelet-rich plasma led to a statistically significant improvement in hair regrowth for male androgenetic alopecia, compared to using the laser treatment alone.

The researchers reported that combining stromal vascular fraction (SVF) with fractional CO2 laser treatment significantly improved burn scar outcomes and patient satisfaction compared to using the laser alone.

This study examined 144 patients with COVID-19 in Guatemala and found a significant link between skin manifestations, especially those with vasculonecrotic damage, and a higher likelihood of severe to critical illness.

This study concluded that fractional laser therapy, alone or combined with minoxidil or cortisol, effectively treated alopecia areata, showing better outcomes than the drugs alone, without increasing adverse effects, though effectiveness did not significantly differ from similar physical treatments.

This review suggests that fractional CO2 laser treatment may be a promising option for treating alopecia areata with a good safety profile.

This study found that intense pulse light and diode laser treatments were similarly effective and tolerable for reducing unwanted facial hair in female patients with hirsutism, with no significant differences in hair reduction, adverse effects, or patient satisfaction between the two methods.

This case report describes successful hair regrowth and repigmentation in a patient with scalp-localized alopecia areata following treatment with Sunetics Laser therapy.
