This article discusses alexandrite laser hair removal in forehead flap nasal reconstruction. We highlight the importance of timing, with preoperative hair removal offering better outcomes and preventing postoperative regrowth. Postoperative removal, however, is more complex and requires extended treatment. Follicular unit extraction (FUE) is suggested as an effective preoperative alternative. Both methods have advantages, and a personalized approach is recommended to optimize results.

Lime and NaS, used in dehairing in the tannery industry, cause the generation of toxic wastes. Ecological security and financial issues demand a look for innovative approaches to leather dehairing free from pollution. The primary goal of this investigation was to explore keratinolytic protease producing bacteria from tannery waste, their genomic evaluation and to assess their possible use in the dehairing process.

Background: Both ultraviolet B (UVB) phototherapy with 308-nm excimer light and excimer laser devices are widely used to treat vitiligo. While the devices share the 308-nm wavelength, they have distinct characteristics. Notably, the excimer laser exhibits laser properties (monochromatic coherent light) and unique device specifications (a high frequency of 400 Hz and a remarkably high irradiance of 83 million mW/cm).
