5.0 out of 5 stars Comprehensive book about laser surgery, March 28, 2009
This review is from: Principles and Practices in Cutaneous Laser Surgery (Basic and Clinical Dermatology) (Hardcover)
This book is best, that I saw about cutaneus laser surgery. As laser practitioner, I think this book - a comprehensive manual for laser surgeons. Book is up to date, and covers the field broadly - from the history of lasers in medicine to lasers treatment of cutaneous disorders and some organization topics for practice. This books category is - "Must have it !"

4.0 out of 5 stars lasers just for skin treatments, August 13, 2008
This review is from: Principles and Practices in Cutaneous Laser Surgery (Basic and Clinical Dermatology) (Hardcover)
Amazing that lasers have made this deep [pun intended] impression in medicine. This book confines itself to usages on the skin. Like dealing with birthmarks [eg. port wine marks], scars and tattoos. Or in hair transplantation.

Different lasers are used for different problems. The text shows how a particular type of laser might be well suited for a given issue. The ability of some wavelengths to penetrate the upper skin layers also is an advantage in some operations. Giving a means of getting at lower layers without traditional surgery.

First Sentence:
A proper history of lasers in dermatologic surgery requires not just a chronological recitation (1-3) of what we know as published fact by the sequential appearance of peer-reviewed and dated articles and Congress presentations but also an attempt to find the thread of true progress weaving through the fabric of the "cloak of magical claims." Read the first page
