Emerging as a potential solution with improvement in both look and function of HTS are ablative fractional lasers (AFLs.). Recent Guidelines consider Ablative Fractional laser as first line of treatment to hypertrophic scars

Can Fractional Laser Treat Acne scar?

The fractional CO2 laser is a good treatment option for treating acne scars. It benefits by increasing amount of collagen production and resurfacing damaged skin layers, that results in helping to smooth out scar areas and enhance overall skin texture.

Can Fractional laser remove Stretch mark?

Stretch marks are scars on the dermis that cause patients to be self-conscious and that pose challenges in clinical treatment. They result from rapid stretching of the skin and often observed in adolescents, pregnant women, obese individuals, and people experiencing rapid change in weight. They initially appear as erythematous and edematous plaques (red striae), and as they mature, they become whitish and atrophic (striae alba) due to the degradation and reorganization of elastin and collagen fibers. Currently, laser treatment is an emerging noninvasive therapeutic modality that is successful in reducing the excessive vascularization of red striae and in stimulating the production of collagen and elastin in the Alba

Based on clinical cases and systematic reviews, both ablative and non-ablative fractional lasers caused moderate improvement in the appearance of distending striae. The 1540-nm non-ablative fractional laser is more likely to be considered the first-line treatment for stretch marks.
