Laser pearls

Abstract

Every laser practitioner should aim to optimize treatments to achieve maximal clinical benefit whilst ensuring comfort and safety of their patients. As laser devices are frequently very expensive, a pragmatic approach should allow the practitioner to maximize benefit from each device and treat as many indications as effectively and as safely possible, thus maximizing both clinical and economic benefits. This chapter will provide some tips and pearls which readers can use in their clinical practice, hopefully leading to achievement of the above goals.
