Plastic and reconstructive surgery (PRS) is a field in which any congenital or acquired abnormalities in patients are corrected, including dyschromic skin lesions or tumorous lesions(1, 2). Laser treatment is effective in such cases, however incorrect choice of lasers and incorrect use of a laser may be more detrimental than therapeutic to the patient. Recent advances in laser surgery and the increase in new laser technologies have necessitated these guidelines for the safe usage of lasers. The purpose of these guidelines is to set a safety standard for the use of high output lasers thereby securing the safety of all involved in laser treatment.
