Measure
1,550 Laser
All subjects on this arm will be treated on this split-faced. This arm is looking at the side of the face treated with the 1,550-nanometer Fracionated Photothermolysis laser. 1,550 fracionated photothermolysis laser vs. 755 picosecond laser: All subjects will have one side of their face treated with one laser, and the other side with the other laser.
755 Laser
All subjects on this arm will be treated on this split-faced. This arm is the side of their face will be treated with the 755-nanometer alexandrite picosecond laser. 1,550 fracionated photothermolysis laser vs. 755 picosecond laser: All subjects will have one side of their face treated with one laser, and the other side with the other laser.
