20.500.12556/RUL-182335 Characteristics of non-ablative resurfacing of soft tissues by repetitive Er:YAG laser pulse irradiation Recently, several minimally invasive gynecological, ENT and esthetic procedures have been introduced that are based on delivering “smooth” sequences of Er:YAG laser pulses to cutaneous or mucosal tissue at moderate cumulative fluences that are not only below the ablation threshold but typically also do not require local anesthesia. To explain the observed clinical results using “smooth-resurfacing,” it has been suggested that in addition to the direct heat injury to deeper-lying connective tissues, there is an additional mechanism based on indirect triggering of tissue regeneration through short-exposure, intense heat shocking of epithelia. The goal of this study is to improve understanding of the complex dynamics of the exposure of tissues to a series of short Er:YAG laser pulses, during which the thermal exposure times transition from extremely short to long durations. true false true Angleški jezik Angleški jezik Članek v reviji 2026-05-07 13:00:45 2026-05-07 13:00:46 2026-05-08 04:51:47 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2021 0 0 Str. 1266–1278 iss. 9 Vol. 53 2021 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 535 0196-8092 10.1002/lsm.23402 61164035 Lukac_et_al._-_Characteristics_....pdf Lukac_et_al._-_Characteristics_....pdf 1 94642378A8997155029E1B83483AD49B 02a1314b04f6f8365c8b58728cb7906de0dce654258fbfb5a8b350d0eca33b44 ebc99977-4a03-11f1-b0ab-0050569b8976 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=233497 https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/lsm.23402 0 f65e6b0d-4a03-11f1-b0ab-0050569b8976 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=233498 Fakulteta za strojništvo 0 0 0
