Keratosis Pilaris Atrophicans Faciei: A Case Treated with 585 nm Diode Laser, a Novel Fractional Solid-State

Keratosis pilaris atrophicans faciei (KPAF) is a rare, hereditary, follicular disorder categorized in the atrophicans subtypes of keratosis pilaris (KP). Nowadays it can be treated with light and laser devices. Lasers with wavelengths <600 nm, especially pulsed dye laser (PDL), are effective for treatments of KPAF. Here, we present a case with KPAF treated with 585 nm diode laser, a kind of laser system functioning with differential wavelength modified optically pumped semiconductor (D-WMOPS) technology. Our case is the first patient reported to have been treated with this laser technology in the literature.
