FRAGMENTO

La tecnología láser en las últimas dos décadas ha sido una aliada incondicional del dermatólogo en el enfoque terapéutico de ciertas alteraciones cutáneas que antaño carecieron de un tratamiento eficaz y/o seguro, como por ejemplo, el nevus de Ota, tatuajes, hirsutismo y las secuelas cicatriciales del acné. Hoy en día es posible tratar estos tres cuadros y muchas otras dermatosis, de una manera más o menos eficaz y con un perfil de seguridad adecuado, siempre y cuando se siga un protocolo y, sobre todo, el profesional cuente con la debida preparación y experiencia.
