The Treatment of Ota's Nevus Using Dr. Hoon Hur's Golden Parameter with a High Fluence 1064 nm Nd: YAG Laser without Side Effects
Journal Title: Journal of Dermatology Research and Therapy - Year 2017, Vol 3, Issue 2
Abstract
Ota's nevus is a congenital benign oculodermal melanocytosis as a macular hyperpigmentation on the face. The color of lesion is mostly blotchy gray to blue or blue. Ota's nevus can cause emotional and psychological distress because the face can be a disfigurement, so appropriate treatment is necessary. However treating the Ota's nevus without side effects such as purpura, crust, postinflammatory hyperpigmentation and scarring is extremely difficult. Therefore, the authors introduce a new treatment using Dr. Hoon Hur's Golden Parameter with a high fluence 1064 nm Q-switched Nd: YAG laser that can effectively treat Ota's nevus without side effects and recurrences.
