Abstract:
The port-wine stain has always been a difficult lesion to treat cosmetically. Skin biopsoes prior to treatment port-wine stains and at 11- 42 months after CO2 laser treatment of port-wine stain were taken in 6 patients of both sexes. Histology after CO2 laser surgery in successfully treated lesions is remarkable for a few small-caliber dilated vessels with relativelly free of erythrocytes. The histology after CO2 laser surgery also revealed a large amount of collagen deposited and a few appendageal structures in the dermis.
