    Author: Weston J, Apfelberg DB, Maser MR, Lash H, White D.
    Journal: Ann Plast Surg; 1985 Aug; 15(2):132-7. PubMed ID: 3937482.
    Abstract:
    Adenoma sebaceum is a disfiguring facial deformity that constitutes part of the multiple system involvement in tuberous sclerosis. Three affected patients have been treated with carbon dioxide "laserbrasion," which has resulted in a long-lasting improvement without scarring or recurrence. Tuberous sclerosis is described, and the CO2 technique is discussed.
