Abstract
Introduction: Transcutaneous laser-assisted drug delivery (LADD) is recognized as a developing therapy for skin disorders.
Method: Current literature was reviewed to summarize current applications for LADD.
Discussion: 12 clinical applications for this therapy are currently reported.
Conclusion: LADD has potential for wide application in skin disorder treatment.
Lay summary: Laser assisted drug delivery improves drug bioavailability for treatment of skin disorders. This technique is being assessed clinically in disorders ranging from skin cancers to alopecia.
