Abstract:
The congenital facial melanocytic lesion Ota's nevus is reviewed, and an effective cosmetic treatment--sequential dry ice application and epidermal peeling combined with argon laser--is discussed. It is emphasized that Ota's nevus is not simply a dermal lesion and that patients should receive careful ophthalmological follow-up.
