Article Synopsis
- Tufted angioma (TA) is a rare, benign vascular tumor that typically appears in infants, characterized by reddish or purplish lesions, and is difficult to treat effectively.
- A case study of a 15-year-old girl with TA showed improvement in her painful, purplish plaques after applying pulsed dye laser (PDL) treatment over several sessions.
- PDL specifically targets the abnormal blood vessels in TA, leading to reduced redness and pain with minimal damage to surrounding skin.

Article Synopsis
- Burn injuries can lead to serious complications like hypertrophic scars and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH), impacting healing and quality of life.
- A 20-year-old man with these issues was treated using a combination of long-pulsed and Q-switched Nd:YAG laser therapies, resulting in significant clinical improvement after five sessions without major side effects.
- This dual laser approach effectively reduces scar thickness and improves skin tone, presenting a viable treatment option for managing post-burn scars and hyperpigmentation.
