This chapter discusses pediatric disorders like alopecia areata and vitiligo, identifying laser and light therapies as treatment options, and highlights that the pulsed dye laser is well tolerated and effective for treating molluscum contagiosum.

This study found that the 308-nm Excimer laser was effective and safe for treating patchy alopecia areata in children, with hair regrowth observed in 60% of treated scalp patches.

308 nm excimer phototherapy can help some people with alopecia areata regrow hair, especially if their condition is less severe.

This review highlights that laser and light treatments could serve as safe and effective alternatives to current therapies for alopecia areata, with the excimer laser showing positive results, though further randomized controlled trials are necessary to establish optimal treatment protocols.
