This study sought to evaluate the clinical outcome of patients who had been diagnosed with recurrent herpes labialis (RHL) after treatment with photodynamic therapy (PDT) associated with low-level laser therapy (LLLT). PDT has shown great effectiveness for treating already-established RHL vesicles, compared to ordinary treatments involving antiviral compounds. Two patients with vesicles on their lips were treated with PDT, followed by irradiation with LLLT. Both patients reported pain relief immediately after the procedure; at a six-month follow-up, neither patient showed signs or symptoms that related to RHL.
本研究旨在评估经光动力疗法（PDT）联合低强度激光疗法（LLLT）治疗后被诊断为复发性唇疱疹（RHL）的患者的临床结局。与使用抗病毒化合物的常规治疗相比，PDT已显示出对已形成的RHL水疱具有显著疗效。两名唇部出现水疱的患者接受了PDT治疗，随后进行了LLLT照射。两名患者均报告在治疗后疼痛立即缓解；在六个月的随访中，两名患者均未出现与RHL相关的体征或症状。
