[Dermatological laser treatments and energy-based devices] - [Article in Danish]

Abstract 

Lasers, light sources and energy-based devices are increasingly used for dermatological conditions. The Danish Dermatological Laser Society has in 2024 updated the recommendations for distinguishing medical laser treatments to be provided free of charge from self-payment treatments. Several considerations underlie these recommendations, eg. diagnosis, aetiology, severity, location of the disease etc. In this review, the authors suggest that the recommendations constitute the basis for referring patients to dermatological laser treatment in Denmark.
