A 308 nm excimer laser successfully treated a boy with a rare skin condition after about a year of weekly sessions.

Laser treatment for skin conditions VEN and ILVEN is effective and liked by patients.

Excimer laser therapy can be an alternative for treating superficial morphea when topical steroids don't work.

This study reviews the use of lasers and light therapies as treatment options for managing the two most common types of alopecia—androegenetic alopecia and alopecia areata—highlighting that existing FDA-approved drugs like minoxidil and finasteride are partially effective, necessitating additional therapeutic approaches.

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.
