13 patients with pyogenic granuloma were treated with a CO2 laser using the continuous wave laser in all cases and using additionally the ultrapulsed laser in 7 patients. The pyogenic granuloma was removed in all patients in one session. Side effects included transient erythema in 8 patients and scars in 2 cases. There was no hypo- or hyperpigmentation. The use of the CO2 laser is a fast and bloodless way to treat pyogenic granuloma with slight side effects and is an elegant alternative to standard approaches.
