Laser technology, since its inception, has grown to find it's in varied fields, and medical science has been no exception. Dermatological surgery is in itself an emerging field in medical science, and the evolution of laser technology has further widened its scope, with various therapeutic well as diagnostic applications. Though the use of this technology is rapidly evolving, controlled studies to compare the efficacy of different types of lasers in specific skin conditions, or its effect on different skin types, is lacking. This study presents the observations of the response to the Carbon-di-oxide laser used to treat various skin conditions, in the Nepali skin phenotype. Lasers are being used to treat a wide variety of dermatological conditions, many of which did not have satisfactory treatment in the past. Further studies are required to study the effect of lasers in the Nepali skin phenotype, so as to standardize the wavelengths, doses and exposure times that would be suitable to treat specific skin conditions.
激光技术自诞生以来，已在各个领域得到广泛应用，医学领域也不例外。皮肤科手术本身就是医学领域中一个新兴的领域，激光技术的发展进一步拓宽了其范围，涵盖了各种治疗和诊断应用。尽管这项技术的应用正在迅速发展，但缺乏比较不同类型激光在特定皮肤状况下的疗效或其对不同皮肤类型影响的对照研究。本研究展示了对用于治疗尼泊尔人皮肤表型的各种皮肤状况的二氧化碳激光的反应观察结果。激光正被用于治疗多种皮肤病，其中许多在过去没有令人满意的治疗方法。需要进一步研究激光在尼泊尔人皮肤表型中的作用，以便规范适合治疗特定皮肤状况的波长、剂量和照射时间。
