[Expert consensus on the clinical application of narrow-band intense pulsed light (2024 edition)].

The continuous innovation of medical cosmetology technology promotes the rapid development of aesthetic medicine. Narrow-band intense pulsed light (NB-IPL), which is developed based on conventional intense pulsed light, is a more accurate, efficient, and safer technique on clinical application. In order to promote more professionalization and standardization of the clinical application of NB-IPL, a panel of clinical experts in plastic surgery, dermatology and other fields developed the consensus based on the evidence-based medicine, clinical practice, and authoritative guidelines of other disciplines. The consensus panel discussed the indications, treatment parameters, contraindications, and precautions for the clinical application of NB-IPL and would serve as a reference for clinicians, nurses, teaching and research personnels engaged in plastic and cosmetics related work.
