Abstract
Rhinophyma is a rare manifestation of rosacea. It is clinically characterized by sebaceous hypertrophy, fibrosis, and telangiectasia. Usually, it is considered as a cosmetic defect; however, in some cases, it might cause problems with nasal breathing and food consumption which forces the need for treatment. The following article presents the effectiveness of laser treatment with the neodymium-yttrium-aluminum garnet (Nd:YAG), carbon dioxide laser (CO2), and fractional CO2 laser.
