Abstract
Lentigo simplex is a benign melanocytic lesion commonly arising in childhood. We report a 10-year-old girl with a stable periorbital lentigo simplex treated using a 755-nm picosecond alexandrite laser. The patient underwent five treatment sessions over three years, resulting in significant pigment reduction without adverse effects or recurrence. This case highlights the long-term safety and efficacy of picosecond laser treatment for pediatric facial pigmented lesions, particularly in cosmetically sensitive areas. It also adds to the limited literature supporting laser use in children and emphasizes the importance of noninvasive options for aesthetic concerns.
期刊介绍:
Skin Research and Technology is a clinically-oriented journal on biophysical methods and imaging techniques and how they are used in dermatology, cosmetology and plastic surgery for noninvasive quantification of skin structure and functions. Papers are invited on the development and validation of methods and their application in the characterization of diseased, abnormal and normal skin.
Topics include blood flow, colorimetry, thermography, evaporimetry, epidermal humidity, desquamation, profilometry, skin mechanics, epiluminiscence microscopy, high-frequency ultrasonography, confocal microscopy, digital imaging, image analysis and computerized evaluation and magnetic resonance. Noninvasive biochemical methods (such as lipids, keratin and tissue water) and the instrumental evaluation of cytological and histological samples are also covered.
The journal has a wide scope and aims to link scientists, clinical researchers and technicians through original articles, communications, editorials and commentaries, letters, reviews, announcements and news. Contributions should be clear, experimentally sound and novel.
