Abstract

Verruca and molluscum contagiosum (MC) infections tend to involve some body parts that create aesthetic concern, e.g. facial, palmoplantar and genital area. Therefore, new searches are continuing especially in treatment resistant cases. In this article, it is aimed to review of literature data about the efficacy and safety of certain lasers and Intense Pulsed Laser (IPL) treatments frequently used in verruca and MC infections in recent years. The clinical studies, case series and reports which were published in the last 20 years have been examined. It has been determined that CO2 laser, Nd: YAG laser and PDL are effective treatment options in resistant verruca infections; however, further studies are needed to determine the efficacy of other lasers and IPL in treatment. PDL treatment can be an effective and reliable option in the treatment of MC, but it is not enough studies on this subject and more extensive studies are required. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
