Abstract
Vascular lesions occurring in African-American patients are often not treated because of the risk of local side effects. The study was to determine the efficacy of the flashlamp-pumped dye (FLPD) laser in the treatment of vascular malformations in African-American patients. All lesions in three patients were treated with the FLPD laser using a 585 nm wavelength, 5 mm spot size, 450 pulse width, and fluences ranging from 6.5 to 8.5j per cm2. The FLPD was effective in treating vascular malformations. Transient changes in colour and skin texture occurred at the treated sites.
