Traumatic tattoos can occur when foreign pigment particles are embedded within the dermis, sometimes resulting as traumatic events. Traditional treatment modalities, including surgical excision, cryosurgery, electrosurgery, dermabrasion, CO lasers, and argon lasers, have limitations such as nonselectivity for pigment and risks of scarring and discoloration. We present the case of a patient who developed a postoperative tattoo after a minimal access cranial suspension facelift procedure that subsequently completely resolved after treatment with the high-powered 1064-nm picosecond laser. The patient achieved complete resolution of the postoperative tattoo after five laser treatments without adverse events or recurrence of pigmentation on follow-up. High-powered 1064-nm picosecond laser can serve as a fast, safe, and effective modality that in our clinic has become the first-line treatment for traumatic tattoos, and in our patient led to high satisfaction.
当外来色素颗粒嵌入真皮层时，可能会出现外伤性纹身，有时这是由外伤事件导致的。传统的治疗方法，包括手术切除、冷冻手术、电外科手术、磨皮术、二氧化碳激光和氩激光，存在诸如对色素无选择性以及有瘢痕形成和色素沉着风险等局限性。我们报告了一例患者，该患者在接受微创颅骨悬吊面部提升手术后出现了术后纹身，随后经高功率1064纳米皮秒激光治疗后完全消退。该患者经五次激光治疗后术后纹身完全消退，随访期间无不良事件发生，也无色素沉着复发。高功率1064纳米皮秒激光可作为一种快速、安全且有效的治疗方式，在我们诊所已成为外伤性纹身的一线治疗方法，并且在我们的患者中获得了高度满意度。
