Abstract
The role dermatologists have played throughout the history of laser development is an extremely vital one. The initial interests of Dr. Leon Goldman stimulated many other individual dermatologists to further his work and develop surgical techniques using newer laser systems to provide more effective treatment for patients with a variety of skin diseases. The long list of current cutaneous laser applications developed by dermatologists makes it virtually certain that members of our specialty will continue to play a significant future role in the refinement of laser instrumentation and operative techniques that are inevitable to occur.
