Treatment of Acne, Wound and Burn Scars

Acne (pimple) scar treatment is carried out with lasers which renew the skin by peeling. Ablative lasers which are effective by peeling the top layer of the skin are utilized.

Treatment Method

Ablative Lasers are also believed to stimulate the production of collagen in the skin. With the regeneration of the skin, acne scars are reduced. Er:YAG laser is used for this purpose.

Its superiority over other peeling methods (dermabrasion, chemical peeling - peeling) is because it is possible to control the peeling depth with laser. In other peeling techniques, it is more difficult to descend into the lower layers of the skin in a controlled manner.

Acne - acne scar treatment with lasers (non-ablative laser) that renew the skin without peeling

Lasers used in this procedure (Q-Switched and Pico lasers) treat acne scars without peeling the upper skin, and by affecting the lower layers of the skin. By stimulating the collagen and creating regeneration centers, they initiate a process in which the building blocks increase in the skin so that acne scars become less visible.

While scars on the face heal much more smoothly, in areas especially like the anterior chest wall, the scars heal much more noticeably and poorly. At the same time, incisions parallel to the body lines heal much better, while vertical incisions heal much more noticeably. In some people, scars heal to a fine level that they are not visible, while healing of some persons will be with puffy, reddened, and noticeable.

Our main goal in scar treatment is to initiate the structuring process in the scar without allowing formation of swelling, shrinkage, and contraction in the scars. Therefore, wound care after surgical procedures involving using regeneration creams recommended by your physician, using sunscreen, not removing the scab are the measures that will support the healthiest wound healing process. In order to reorganize the formed scars, by using a combination of Q-switched or Pico laser and Er:YAG Laser, while color unevenness can be eliminated, healing centers are created, and the scar is restructured by entering the compulsory healing process with programmed damage. A regeneration that cannot be felt different from normal skin can be achieved gradually.
