Abstract

ABSTRACT Maxillofacial benign vascular lesions may require removal for aesthetic purpose or bleeding. Lasers have been substituting traditional excision. Fifteen vascular lesions were treated with different Blue Diode Laser protocols: laser forced dehydration (LFD), intralesional coagulation (ILC), surgical excision. LFD is conservative, quick and does not need anesthesia. ILC was used as second choice and surgical excision when both techniques failed. One patient reported asymptomatic ulceration after LFD and one patient referred bleeding after ILC. None experienced pain or relapse. Lasers are useful for treating vascular benign lesions. Surgical excision should be left as utmost treatment especially in case of aesthetic concern.
