Abstract | BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES:
The use of lasers, light sources, and radiofrequency devices in Asian patients differs from their use in Caucasians in several respects.
STUDY DESIGN/MATERIALS AND METHODS:
The disease spectrum is very different with pigmentary disorders being more commonly encountered in Asian populations. Asian skin, with its higher epidermal melanin content, is more likely to develop adverse reactions, especially post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH), following treatment.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS:
The purpose of this article is to discuss the effective and safe use of lasers, light sources, and radiofrequency devices in the clinical management of Asian patients with selected dermatoses. |
