Laser therapy for acne scars

Laser therapy for acne scars is a popular method used to treat scars caused by acne. The treatment involves the use of a laser that works on the skin to stimulate regeneration and improve its structure. This makes it possible to reduce the visibility of scars, both atrophic and hypertrophic.

Laser therapy promotes collagen production, leading to improved skin elasticity. Depending on the type of scars and the individual patient's needs, different laser technologies are used, such as fractional lasers or ablative. The treatment usually requires several sessions and the results may vary depending on the skin's response. After treatment, it is important to take proper care and protect the skin from the sun.

People with active skin infections, certain dermatological conditions or those taking photosensitising medication should consult their doctor before deciding on the procedure.
