Abstract

The flashlamp-pumped pulsed dye laser (FPDL) is regarded as the gold standard in the treatment of port wine stains. The purpose of this prospective, intra-individual, comparative clinical study was to investigate whether a frequency-doubled variable pulsed Nd:YAG laser (frequency-doubled Nd:YAG) is equally as safe and effective as established lasers. Forty-three patients with port wine stains were included in the study. Test treatments were performed using the frequency-doubled Nd:YAG laser (532 nm
