The most effective and, at the same time, minimally invasive method of the removal of scars is the fractionated photothermolysis method using the FRAXEL laser. The mechanism of action of FRAXELA consists in creating thermal damage in the scar of the skin, in the place of intensive collagen production. As a result, atrophic wells are pushed upward, which optically gives the skin surface smoothing effect.
Once during the procedure, we can irradiate about 20-25% of the area of the affected skin. It is necessary to perform 5-10 treatments with an interval of about one month, so that the effect of the treatment is full,
For the FRAXEL laser therapy, all atrophic scars (concave) are eligible, and the over-scars (convex) cannot be illuminated..
If the patient was treated with oral isotretinoin due to severe acne, the time from the end of therapy to the surgery with the use of FRAXELA is a minimum of 3 months.
