  • Abstract
    We studied with great interest the valuable case report titled “Lichen planus pigmentosus successfully treated with conventional CO2 laser resurfacing” authored by Dr. R. Radmanesh and his colleague 1. The authors present their successful experience with the application of CO2 laser resurfacing for the management of residual post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) in a 54-year-old patient with stable lichen planus pigmentosus (LPP). She had already received conventional topical treatments of LPP for a long time as well as hydroxychloroquine for six months.
