Chromophores of the skin, especially melanin and exogenous pigments (e.g., tattoos), absorb red ruby laser light (694 nm) comparatively well. Selective photothermolysis of melanin, melanosomes, and tattoo particles theoretically leads to clearing or removing of cutaneous pigmented lesions and tattoos. The excellent cosmetic results after ruby laser treatment are leading to the increasingly widespread use of these costly laser systems. Not only physicians, but also cosmeticians and masseurs work with ruby lasers to remove tattoos and cutaneous pigmented lesions, often without correct dermatological diagnosis. An ever-increasing number of patients present themselves at our department with nevi previously treated with ruby laser. The dimensions and potential sequelae of these treatments are still unknown. Therefore, we present the principles of ruby laser treatment and its indications, side effects, and the main risks.
皮肤中的发色团，尤其是黑色素和外源性色素（如纹身颜料），对红宝石激光（694纳米）具有较好的吸收性。理论上，黑色素、黑素小体和纹身颗粒的选择性光热解作用能够清除或去除皮肤色素沉着病变及纹身。红宝石激光治疗后出色的美容效果使得这些昂贵的激光设备使用日益广泛。不仅医生，美容师和按摩师也使用红宝石激光去除纹身和皮肤色素沉着病变，而且往往未进行正确的皮肤科诊断。越来越多曾接受红宝石激光治疗的痣患者前来我院就诊。这些治疗的范围和潜在后果尚不清楚。因此，我们介绍红宝石激光治疗的原理、适应证、副作用及主要风险。
