Abstract

Background: Treatment of progressive disseminated essential telangiectasia and erythrosis interfollicularis colli by flashlamp pulsed dye laser frequently results in a mottled appearance and often leads to hypo- or hyperpigmentation after treatment. Furthermore, treatment is time- consuming due to the small spot size. Objective: To report the successful removal of thin vessels in patients with the above- mentioned indications by an intense pulsed light ( IPL) source. Methods: Four patients with progressive disseminated telangiectasia on the extremities and 5 patients with erythrosis interfollicularis colli were treated with IPL. Results: A clearance of up to 90% of the telangiectasias was achieved. Conclusion: The superficial, thin vessels of progressive disseminated essential telangiectasia and erythrosis interfollicularis colli can be successfully treated by IPL. Copyright (C) 2008 S.
