通过回顾性分析临床照片和患者满意率，评估了1064 nm Q开关钕：钇铝石榴石（QS Nd：YAG）低脉冲能量激光治疗25名女性黄褐斑的疗效。末次治疗后2个月的随访结果显示，根据我们的分级量表，25例患者中有11例（44%）有明显的临床改善：其中7例（28%）几乎完全临床改善，5例中度临床改善，2例轻微或无改善。我们的数据表明，在选定的东亚患者中，使用低脉冲能量的QS Nd：YAG激光是一种有效且易于实施的黄褐斑治疗方法。
The efficacy of a 1064-nm Q-switched neodymium: yttrium-aluminium-garnet (QS Nd:YAG) laser with low pulse energy in the treatment of melasma in 25 women was assessed by retrospective analysis of clinical photographs and patient satisfaction rates. Follow-up results 2 months after the last treatment revealed that, as defined by our grading scale, 11 of the 25 patients (44%) had marked clinical improvement: 7 of these (28%) had near-total clinical improvement, 5 had moderate clinical improvement and 2 had minimal to no improvement. Our data suggest that the use of a QS Nd: YAG laser with low pulse energy is an effective, easily performed treatment for melasma in selected East Asian patients.
