Abstract

Objectives : The purpose of this study is to report the effect of Q-switched ND:YAG laser therapy along with hominis placenta pharmacopuncture for the patients with Solar lentigines. Methods : The 532nm wavelengths of Q-switched ND:YAG Laser was used to irradiate to the solar lentigines once, choosing an energy that would produce an adequate change in skin color. Also 5cc of hominis placenta pharmacopuncture were injected into both Cheonchu(ST 25). Results : After the treatment with Q-switched ND:YAG laser therapy along with hominis placenta pharmacopuncture, solar lentigines were effectively removed. Conclusion : The treatment with Q-switched ND:YAG laser therapy along with hominis placenta pharmacopuncture for the patients with solar lentigines are effective in the eight cases. Futher, additional studies are required to verify its long-term efficacy.
