Abstract
Laser resurfacing techniques are widely used among the spectrum of dermatosurgical procedures in order to remove circumscribed skin lesion as well as larger areas. In particular, Erbium:YAG-laser-technology enables us to perform a highly precise skin ablative work. In a variety of indications superficial skin ablation is safe, not associated with major discomfort, and easy to control. Therefore, this technique has replaced mechanical dermabrasion and other modalities of tissue removal in many indications. Careful laser ablation is of special worth in aesthetic skin surgery, also when treating disorders appearing in atrophic skin of elderly patients or in more delicate areas in order to prevent prolonged healing along with unwarranted side effects.
