LAS VEGAS – Pulsed dye lasers have stood the test of time for treating vascular malformations, rosacea, and telangectases, Dr. Christopher Zachary said at Skin Disease Education Foundation’s annual Las Vegas dermatology seminar.
However, Dr. Zachary noted in an interview at the meeting that the field of laser therapy is on the cusp of new innovation, not only in devices, but also in how the devices are used. Different wavelengths and combination treatments will provide more options for patients, he explained. “These are great times for those who are interested in treating vascular problems,” he said.
Dr. Zachary disclosed serving as a consultant for Cutera and Zeltiq, on the speakers bureau for Cynosure and Solta, and on the advisory board for Zeltiq.
