Abstract
Background: Interest in aesthetic procedures that help maintain a youthful look is on the rise. While many nonsurgical techniques focus on facial rejuvenation, there is a need for a detailed review of treatments, specifically for nonfacial areas.
Aim: This review explores various clinic-based methods for revitalizing the neck, chest, and hands, with a particular emphasis on different laser treatments.
Methods: For this second part of the review, we conducted a comprehensive search on PubMed to evaluate the effectiveness of various laser treatments. The review covers treatment parameters such as wavelength, fluence, and pulse, along with outcomes, follow-up care, and potential side effects. A discussion on the role of sclerotherapy in treating these areas was also included.
Conclusions: This article compiles recent findings on the safety and effectiveness of these treatments, showcasing progress in laser technologies and the growing trend of noninvasive body rejuvenation. It offers practical insights for both practitioners and patients looking for reliable options in nonsurgical body treatments.
