Abstract

The Q-switched ruby laser (wave-length 694 nm, pulse duration 25 ns or 40 ns) causes selective damage to natural or artificial pigment. This laser has produced very good results in the treatment of amateur, professional and traumatic tattoos and of a number of benign pigmented lesions. We report on two patients with lentigines treated effectively with a Q-switched ruby laser.
