Abstract
To improve the skin structure and to achieve overall smoothening or toning of the skin, fractional lasers are frequently utilized. Due to the technique of fractional photothermolysis, an effective neocollagenesis is achieved with minimal downtime and good tolerability for the patients compared to the conventional, fully ablative methods. Depending on the employed settings, fractional CO2-laser treatments will initiate a significant stimulation of collagen remodeling and will ultimately result in skin tightening. To date, this technology represents one of the best-studied and most effective treatment procedures in the anti-aging field and has become one of the central options for the treatment of atrophic - and hypertrophic scars.
