The main reasons for the treatment of VL are aesthetic. The haemorrhaging episodes or impairment of oral normal functions are also under considerations. Treatment of lip VL includes surgical excision, selective photocoagulation, cryotherapy, sclerotherapy and electrodessication. The high-intensity diode laser is an option. The 980 nm diode laser is selectively absorbed by haemoglobin and selectively destroys blood vessels, minimising injury to the surrounding healthy skin.<\/jats:p><jats:p>Aim: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of diode laser in the treatment of VL lesions with the accent on the postoperative defects and aesthetic results.<\/jats:p><jats:p>Methods: 35 patients aged 37 to 71 were included in this study. A 980 nm diode laser was used in noncontact mode, under local anaesthesia in continuous wave (2-3W, for 20-60s). All patients received only one procedure.<\/jats:p><jats:p>Results: Healing process was completed within 2 to 4 weeks after treatment with no scarring. None of the typical adverse effects were observed in the process of healing.<\/jats:p><jats:p>Conclusions: Selective photocoagulation is an effective method for treatment of VL. Lower morbidity, minimal patient discomfort and satisfactory functional and aesthetic results are favourable for patients. To optimise the results and to reduce the adverse effects, basic knowledge on lasers and laser-tissue interactions is requisite.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1515\/folmed-2016-0017","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2016,8,23]],"date-time":"2016-08-23T09:50:35Z","timestamp":1471945835000},"page":"101-107","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":12,"title":["Minimal Invasive Approach for Lips Venous Lake Treatment by 980 nm Diode Laser with Emphasis on the Aesthetic Results. \u0410 Clinical Series"],"prefix":"10.1515","volume":"58","author":[{"given":"Parvan P.","family":"Voynov","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Georgi T.","family":"Tomov","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Nonka G.","family":"Mateva","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"374","reference":[{"key":"ref21","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1018","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1365-2133.1997.tb01575.x","article-title":"Venous lakes treated by liquid nitrogen cryosurgery","volume":"137","author":"Suhonen","year":"1997","journal-title":"Br J Dermatol"},{"key":"ref91","first-page":"425","article-title":"Venous lake of the lip treated with a sclerosing agent : report of two cases","volume":"29","author":"Kuo","year":"2003","journal-title":"Dermatol Surg"},{"key":"ref71","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"155","DOI":"10.1016\/S0733-8635(18)30624-7","article-title":"The infrared coagulator in dermatology","volume":"7","author":"Colver","year":"1989","journal-title":"Dermatol Clin"},{"key":"ref31","first-page":"20","article-title":"Oral venous lakes : a clinicopathologic analysis of cases Qiang Ch","volume":"37","author":"Bu","year":"2002","journal-title":"Dermatol"},{"key":"ref141","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"373","DOI":"10.1046\/j.1365-2133.1999.02689.x","article-title":"Pyogenic granuloma as a complication of cryosurgery for venous lake","volume":"140","author":"Cecchi","year":"1999","journal-title":"Br J Dermatol"},{"key":"ref101","first-page":"89","article-title":"Lip hemangioma removed with CO laser : a case report Oral","volume":"1","author":"Niccoli","year":"2002","journal-title":"Sci"},{"key":"ref11","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"645","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1365-4362.1987.tb02271.x","article-title":"The ultrastructure of cutaneous venous lakes","volume":"26","author":"Alcalay","year":"1987","journal-title":"Int J Dermatol"},{"key":"ref51","first-page":"1151","article-title":"Long - pulsed Nd : YAG laser treatment of venous lakes : report of a series of cases","volume":"32","author":"Bekhor","year":"2006","journal-title":"Dermatol Surg"},{"key":"ref111","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"263","DOI":"10.1089\/pho.2009.2564","article-title":"Venous lake of the lips treated using photocoagulation with high - intensity diode laser","volume":"28","author":"Azevedo","year":"2010","journal-title":"Photomed Laser Surg"},{"key":"ref121","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"113","DOI":"10.1089\/pho.2007.2143","article-title":"Treatment of hemangioma of the head and neck with diode laser and forced dehydration with induced photocoagulation","volume":"26","author":"Angiero","year":"2008","journal-title":"Photomed Laser Surg"},{"key":"ref61","first-page":"32","article-title":"del Venous lakes : a report of cases treated by carbon dioxide laser vaporisation","volume":"29","author":"Pozo","year":"2003","journal-title":"Dermatol Surg"}],"container-title":["Folia Medica"],"original-title":[],"link":[{"URL":"http:\/\/content.sciendo.com\/view\/journals\/folmed\/58\/2\/article-p101.xml","content-type":"text\/html","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/www.degruyter.com\/view\/j\/folmed.2016.58.issue-2\/folmed-2016-0017\/folmed-2016-0017.pdf","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2020,10,21]],"date-time":"2020-10-21T09:06:13Z","timestamp":1603271173000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"http:\/\/archive.sciendo.com\/FOLMED\/folmed.2016.58.issue-2\/folmed-2016-0017\/folmed-2016-0017.pdf"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2016,6,1]]},"references-count":11,"journal-issue":{"issue":"2"},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1515\/folmed-2016-0017","relation":{},"ISSN":["1314-2143"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1314-2143","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2016,6,1]]}}}
