研究目的
To investigate the effectiveness and safety of using an alexandrite laser for hair removal on forehead flaps after nasal reconstruction.
研究成果
Utilizing an alexandrite laser to remove hair on the forehead is safe and reliable in nasal reconstruction with superior recipient site cosmesis. The technique allows for tension-free state at the recipient site without eyebrow asymmetry when harvesting a vertical paramedian forehead flap into the hair-bearing scalp.
研究不足
The study is limited by its retrospective nature and the small sample size of 22 patients. Additionally, the effectiveness of the laser treatment may vary based on individual patient characteristics such as hair color and skin type.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
A retrospective study was conducted using a Candela alexandrite laser (755 nm, 50–100 ms, 18-mm spot size) with a Dynamic Cooling Device? (DCD?) cooling system for hair removal in 22 patients after nasal reconstructions using forehead flaps.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
Patients who underwent paramedian forehead flap nasal reconstruction and received laser treatment for hair removal from December 2011 to September 2016 were included.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Candela alexandrite laser (GentleLASE Pro-U, Candela CO., Wayland, MA, USA) with a DCD? cooling system.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
All patients received cryogen spray cooling laser treatment (CSC-LT) with energy densities ranging from 14 to 18 J/cm
5:The number of treatments ranged from 2 to Data Analysis Methods:
The esthetic results were evaluated based on pre- and post-treatment photographs, assigning a response score from 1 to 4.
