Laser Treatment of Benign Pigmented Lesions and Facial Rejuvenation

Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology, together with Guest Advisor Prof. Dr. Ashraf Badawi, is pleased to invite you to submit your research to the upcoming Article Collection “Laser Treatment of Benign Pigmented Lesions and Facial Rejuvenation”.

Benign pigmented lesions and facial rejuvenation are among the highest growing demands of patients in the field of cosmetic and aesthetic Dermatology. Laser treatment uses light energy to improve facial flaws, including melasma, uneven pigmentation, and blemishes by stimulating collagen production. Although there are numerous options for treatment of both benign pigmented lesions as well as facial rejuvenation, the outcome is not always satisfactory for patients.

Differentiating between the laser procedures that are backed by science from those derived by marketing is a very important mission to ensure patients have the best outcome. Collecting evidence-based materials from key opinion leaders and presenting it to practitioners is one way that we can complete this mission.

Through this Collection of publications focusing on the available literature about laser treatment of benign pigmented lesions and facial rejuvenation, we aim to provide practitioners with an open access volume of work that will aid patient care and satisfaction.

Review articles, Clinical studies, and randomized control studies covering any topic related to laser treatment of benign pigmented lesions or laser assisted facial rejuvenation are welcomed to this Collection.

Upon submission, please use the promo code D9370 for 10% off the advertised article processing charge and indicate that your manuscript will be considered for the “Laser Treatment of Benign Pigmented Lesions and Facial Rejuvenation” Collection. Please contact the Commissioning Editor, Ashley Ambros, with any questions concerning this Collection.
