Localizations and the percentage of body surface area of treated lesions, the total number of sessions and the possible relapses and side\u2010effects, were analysed. Global satisfaction of the patients was evaluated on a visual analogical scale.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Results\u2002<\/jats:bold> Sixteen areas of normally pigmented skin were treated in six patients. The median number of sessions to achieve a complete depigmentation was 2 (1\u20136). The mean duration of follow\u2010up was 36\u2003months (19\u2013120). One third of the patients had no relapse. A complete repigmentation was observed after 21\u2003months in one patient; a 50% repigmentation was noted in one patient, 7\u2003months after the end of the treatment. Two patients showed a minimal repigmentation (&lt;25%), 18\u2003months and 9\u2003years after the first laser treatments. The repigmentations were effectively treated with a maintenance session. The mean total number of sessions performed during this period was 3 (1\u201320). Side\u2010effects were limited to transient purpura and crusts. The satisfaction of the patients was excellent (mean 9\/10).<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Conclusions\u2002<\/jats:bold> QS lasers appear as an efficient and safe modality for depigmenting normal skin in vitiligo.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/jdv.12038","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2012,11,20]],"date-time":"2012-11-20T15:51:13Z","timestamp":1353426673000},"page":"374-377","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":9,"title":["Laser\u2010assisted depigmentation for resistant vitiligo: a retrospective case series with long\u2010term follow\u2010up"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"28","author":[{"given":"F.","family":"Boukari","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"J.P.","family":"Lacour","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"J.P.","family":"Ortonne","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"P.","family":"Bahadoran","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"T.","family":"Passeron","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2012,11,20]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_5_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1600-0536.1998.tb05863.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1141","DOI":"10.1001\/archderm.1985.01660090055013","article-title":"Dermatitis produced by applications of monobenzone in patients with active vitiligo","volume":"121","author":"Nordlund JJ","year":"1985","journal-title":"Arch Dermatol"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1046\/j.1529-8019.2001.014001029.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_5_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1046\/j.1468-3083.2000.00038.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_6_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1046\/j.1365-4362.1997.00144.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_7_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1067\/mjd.2000.103813"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_8_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1046\/j.1524-4725.2001.01101.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_9_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1524-4725.2004.30313.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_10_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1440-0960.1996.tb01014.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_11_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1468-3083.2010.03876.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_12_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/jama.1962.03050170011003"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_13_2","first-page":"232","article-title":"Differential diagnosis of idiopathic vitiligo from contact leukoderma.
