ABSTRACT
Solar lentigines are benign lesions that are produced by intense exposure to ultraviolet radiation and cause an aesthetic problem. With the Nd: YAG Q-
switched laser, at a wavelength of 532 nm, the solar lentigo is eliminated quickly, without complications, with immediate incorporation into daily activities.
