Abstract:
A case of massive rhinophyma that produced significant functional and cosmetic difficulties was treated using the carbon dioxide laser. Minimal bleeding occurred during the operative procedure despite the grotesque enlargement and high degree of vascularity of the skin and soft tissue. Using this technique, restoration of normal function and excellent cosmesis was possible without complication.
