Nonvascular uses of pulsed dye laser in clinical dermatology
TLDR
The evidence, or lack thereof, of the use of PDL in acne vulgaris, scars, striae, warts, molluscum, psoriasis, rejuvenation, basal cell carcinoma (BCC), and miscellaneous dermatological sequelae is reviewed.
Treatment of facial recalcitrant verruca vulgaris with holmium: YAG laser: An update
TLDR
Holmium laser is an effective and safe therapy for recalcitrant verruca vulgaris and is the choice of treatment for those lesions in cosmetically sensitive areas.
Huge Recalcitrant Warts Treated with Pulse Dye Laser after Conventional Therapies and Others Destructive Physical Modalities Failed
TLDR
The case of a patient with large warts located on the dorsal surface of the right hand, treated with cryotherapy, CO2 laser and topical imiquimod having either no clinical response or quick relapse is described.
Paring and intense pulsed light versus paring alone for recalcitrant hand and foot warts: A randomized clinical trial with blinded outcome evaluation
TLDR
The objective was in a randomized controlled trial to assess the efficacy of paring followed by IPL versus paring alone for recalcitrant hand and foot warts.
Pulsed Dye Laser and Pulsed Dye Laser–Mediated Photodynamic Therapy in the Treatment of Dermatologic Disorders
TLDR
PDL is accepted as first‐line therapy for vascular disorders including port‐wine stains, telangiectasias, and hemangiomas as well as other etiologies, including malignant, inflammatory, viral, and collagenous conditions.
Combination of Surgery and Nd:YAG Laser Therapy for Recalcitrant Viral Warts: A Successful Therapeutic Approach for Immunosuppressed Patients.
TLDR
In immunocompromised patients, complications appear more frequently and severely, therefore the therapeutic regime must be chosen carefully considering possible impaired wound healing or toxicity of therapeutic agents.
Therapeutic Effects of High Fluence Pulsed Dye Laser for Periungual Warts
TLDR
Pulsed dye laser using high fluence could be used as a safe and successful treatment for recalcitrant periungual warts.
Pulsed Dye Laser Therapy in the Treatment of Warts: A Review of the Literature
TLDR
Pulsed dye laser is a safe and effective modality in the treatment of warts that can be applied to most body parts and can be used when other more traditional and accessible treatments have failed.
Photodynamic therapy using methylene blue and intense pulsed light versus intense pulsed light alone in treatment of verruca: a randomized controlled study.
Evaluation of combined treatment with long-pulsed neodymium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet laser and potassium hydroxide for the treatment of recalcitrant wart: a prospective comparative study
TLDR
Adding KOH to LP Nd:YAG laser can decrease the number of treatment sessions to a large extent and show statistically significant regressions in the size of the lesions at the end of the fifth session compared with those present at the onset of therapy.

TLDR
A study was designed to evaluate the efficacy of a flashlamp‐pumped pulsed dye laser (FPDL) in the treatment of verrucae vulgares.
Treatment of recalcitrant warts using the pulsed dye laser.
TLDR
Flat warts were most responsive, but all wart types had a significant response to this benign treatment modality.
The Treatment of Facial Verrucae With the Pulsed Dye Laser
TLDR
The treatment of facial verrucae with the pulsed dye laser is evaluated for the first time to evaluate the effects of the laser treatment on the quality of the face.
Treatment of Anogenital Warts by Pulsed Dye Laser
TLDR
Pulsed dye laser has been found to be safe, effective, satisfactory, and less traumatic compared to other options for treatment of perianal warts in children.
Effectiveness of the 585nm flashlamp‐pulsed tunable dye laser (PTDL) for treatment of plantar verrucae
TLDR
The 585nm flashlamp‐pulsed tunable dye laser is established as a potentially effective modality in the treatment of plantar verrucae and if certain regions of the plantar surface yielded a different clearance rate in comparison to others.
Failure of pulsed dye laser therapy for resistant verrucae
TLDR
Treatment with the 585‐nm pulsed dye laser was performed in patients with viral warts who had tailed to respond to conventional therapeutic modalities, indicating that treatment of resistant viral verrucae of the periungual and plantar skin with the pulsing dye laser is not curative although partial resolution and symptomatic improvement may occur.
Treatment of verruca vulgaris and condyloma acuminatum with lasers
TLDR
The resurfacing mode (high peak power—pulsed or scanned) should be used whenever possible for thin epidermal lesions, such as flat warts, to minimize the risk of delayed healing and scarring and the type of tissue reaction caused by the CO 2 laser is most dependent on the irradiance or power density output of the laser.
Pulsed dye laser treatment of warts.
TLDR
Pulsed dye laser therapy is a highly effective and safe method used to selectively destroy warts without damaging the surrounding skin.

Pulsed dye laser therapy for viral warts.
TLDR
Pulsed dye laser therapy is the treatment of choice for these lesions in cosmetically sensitive areas and no wound was created thus avoiding prolonged postoperative pain, disability and scarring.
