摘要

The treatment of Riehl%26apos;s melanosis is difficult and challenging. Recently, a low-fluence 1064-nm quality (Q)-switched neodymium: yttrium-aluminum-garnet (Nd: YAG) laser method, referred to as %26apos;laser toning%26apos;, has been used in the treatment of melasma in Asian countries. We present here a series of cases of Riehl%26apos;s melanosis that were treated effectively with a novel Q-switched Nd: YAG laser that was operated as a dual-pulse at half-fluence and 140-mu s intervals.
