Fractional laser-assisted delivery of methyl aminolevulinate: Impact of laser channel depth and incubation time
Research output: Contribution to journal › Journal article › Research › peer-review
Pretreatment of skin with ablative fractional lasers (AFXL) enhances the uptake of topical photosensitizers used in photodynamic therapy (PDT). Distribution of photosensitizer into skin layers may depend on depth of laser channels and incubation time. This study evaluates whether depth of intradermal laser channels and incubation time may affect AFXL-assisted delivery of methyl aminolevulinate (MAL).
