Abstract
BackgroundRecent studies have shown that pulsed char-free carbon dioxide lasers are effective in the treatment of rhytids. However, these lasers produce thermal damage with the potential for prolonged wound healing.objectiveIn this study, we evaluated the role of the erbium (Er): YAG laser in the trKeywords
