Medical aesthetics is the use of a procedure or product for a therapeutic indication which is conventionally used for aesthetics. Several medical conditions are now being treated with products, procedures or equipment that are conventionally used for aesthetic indications. This has widened the scope of treatment modalities available for dermatologists to treat various indications that fall outside the purview of aesthetic dermatology. The authors present aesthetic treatment modalities and procedures which can be used for medical aesthetics, their present-day status and usefulness in field of therapeutics with a review of published literature from “Medline” (via “PubMed”), “Cochrane,” the Virtual Health Library, and Google Scholar.

“…The CO 2 laser in super pulse mode can be used for small anesthetic lesions such as xanthelasma, syringomas, milia and hyperplasia of the sebaceous glands. With a high peak power in short mode it is possible to cause vaporization of the lesions by saving the deeper dermis and surrounding epidermis allowing a faster healing without causing scars 18 …”

“…Kyanko et al treated two cases of red tattoo dermatitis with a CO 2 laser in cases previously resistant to topical and intralesional corticosteroids [ 45 ]. Madan found that the CO 2 laser was particularly useful for red ink tattoo granulomas that were recalcitrant to conventional steroid treatment [ 46 ]. Of note, the CO 2 laser has also been reported to trigger the generalisation of localised tattoo dermatitis [ 47 ].…”

Tattoos are common and used extensively as either body art or cosmetic make-up; more rarely, they can be traumatic in nature. We have systemically analysed the literature for the patterns of red pigment tattoo reactions and their treatment options. Our search identified 18 articles; there was 1 non-randomised controlled trial, and the rest were small case studies. In total 139 patients were included within the studies. This review systematically analyses the different subsets of red tattoo reactions including lichenoid, dermatitis, granulomatous, pseudolymphomatous and miscellaneous reactions. The current evidence for the treatment for the above is presented. Dermatitis and lichenoid reactions appear to be the most common subtype of red pigment reactions with various treatment methods applied showing laser intervention to have some degree of success.
