NCT01272609

Brief Summary

Pulsed dye laser (PDL)is the gold standard treatment of port wine stains (PWS). However, many sessions are required and failure or relapses are not uncommon. It has been demonstrated that a neoangiogenesis occurs after PDL, explaining at least partially those failure. The objective of this study is to evaluate the use of a topical beta-blocker (timolol 1% gel) as a combination treatment with PDL for treating PWS. Methods. Prospective multicenter study comparing PDL alone to PDL + timolol. Sessions of PDL will be performed once a month for 3 months. One group will be treated with PDL alone and the other will also applied timolol 1% gel twice a day during treatment. The evaluation will be done one month after the third session.

Study Arms (2)

LCP + Timolol

EXPERIMENTAL

Three sessions of LCP in 595 nm (diameter of spot 7mm; duration of shooting 1,5 ms; Fluence 8 J / cm ²if LCP of Candela © or 7 J / cm ² if LCP of Cynosure ©) spaced out of 1 month. Twice-daily applications on the zone treated by the LCP of timolol frost and will be begun that very evening by the first session and will be pursued 15j after the 3rd session of LCP. The maximum surface of treatment will be 100 cms ².
