Skin resurfacing with the erbium:YAG laser. [Journal Article, Review]
Facial Plast Surg Clin North Am 2001 May; 9(2):291-302, ix.
The Er:YAG laser provides superficial ablation and is generally used for more superficial rejuvenation. Three newer systems provide for thermal-coagulative and ablative properties. These systems are considered as intermediate resurfacing lasers, providing faster healing and results that are typically in between those of the CO2 and standard Er:YAG lasers. The use of traditional and combination Er:YAG lasers is reviewed along with preoperative and postoperative considerations.
