Abstract
Lasers used in dermatological treatments are presented. Commercially available semiconductor lasers (laser diodes) are also presented for comparison. Potential applications of semiconductor lasers to noninvasive information processing or diagnosis as well as medical treatment are discussed. In addition, the current application of LEDs to dermatology is also included in the paper.
