“…Destruction of hair follicle with long pulsed Nd : YAG (1064 nm) laser and tissue debulking with CO 2 laser have the greatest cumulative evidence in the literature reporting their safe and satisfactory outcomes . Single treatment does not result in prevention of recurrence in HS leading to preference of combination therapy.…”

“…It was reported that no single treatment could result in persistent improvement of HS . We postulated that fractional CO 2 laser could increase depth of penetration of long pulsed Nd : YAG (1064 nm) laser augmenting its effect and decreasing risk of recurrence.…”

“…A histopathological survey demonstrated the mechanism of action of the 1064 nm Nd: Yag laser in the treatment of HS: this type of laser penetrates the follicular unit and, through a selective photothermolysis, causes the destruction of organized inflammatory lesions in the superficial to mid dermis. The wavelength 1064 nm in the near-infrared electromagnetic spectrum selectively targets hair shafts and follicles via absorption by the melanin chromophore [ 15 ].…”

AIM:Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a chronic inflammatory disease, commonly characterized by painful, deep dermal abscesses and chronic draining sinus tracts. Recently, laser and light-based therapies have become more commonly used in the management of HS.MATERIAL AND METHODS:We report 20 HS patients treated with a 1064 nm wavelength, emitted from a diode laser, launched in an optical fibre through intracavitary modalities.RESULTS:Each patient underwent four laser sessions, one every two weeks. we recorded a significative reduction (31%) of Sartorius score from 28.55 ± 13.04 to 19.75 ± 12.29 after 4 laser sessions (p < 0.05). No one has had a worsening of the disease.CONCLUSION:Intralesional diode laser 1064 nm can be a good treatment option for patients with moderate and localized hidradenitis suppurativa, because it is minimally invasive, doesn’t have significant complications and provides a rapid post-treatment recovery.

“…Zur Therapie der Hidradenitis suppurativa hingegen wird der klassische langgepulste 1064 nm-Laser empfohlen [ 12 ] . Für Enthaarungen im Bereich der Axillae ist es von Interesse, dass eine Hyperhidrose simultan mit Botulinumtoxin behandelt werden kann [ 1,13 ] .…”

Summary Technical advances in recent years have led to new dermatologic laser systems, light sources, and treatment concepts. Commonly used wavelengths – generated today with LED‐based devices – allow for the combination of various tissue effects and are associated with improved outcomes. Laser hair removal has become more efficient with the use of diode lasers that emit multiple wavelengths simultaneously. In the near future, novel LED‐based lasers will also be introduced for the treatment of vascular lesions. Here, too, the combination of different wavelengths promises to be beneficial. Picosecond lasers have led to advances in the field of pigment removal (tattoos).
