Successful treatment of acne scars is challenging. Many modalities have been used with marginal success.
The authors describe a combination of a superficial chemical peel, subcision, and fractional carbon dioxide (CO2) laser resurfacing in a single-treatment session as a novel treatment approach for rolling acne scars.
A total of 114 patients (75 women and 39 men) with predominantly rolling acne scars were treated with a 20% trichloracetic acid chemical peel, subcision with a novel dissecting instrument, and the CO2 laser under tumescent anesthesia. This was a retrospective, uncontrolled, unblinded study.
The mean improvement after a single treatment was 2.9 on a scale of 1 to 4 with few complications. Ninety percent of the patients were satisfied with their final result and desired no additional treatment.
The combination of a trichloracetic acid 20% chemical peel, subcision, and fractional CO2 laser resurfacing combined with tumescent anesthesia is both safe and effective in the treatment of rolling acne scars.
痤疮瘢痕的成功治疗具有挑战性。许多治疗方法的效果都不太理想。
作者描述了一种在单次治疗中联合浅表化学剥脱、皮下分离术和分次二氧化碳(CO2)激光换肤的方法,作为治疗冰锥型痤疮瘢痕的一种新的治疗方法。
共有114例(75例女性和39例男性)以冰锥型痤疮瘢痕为主的患者接受了20%三氯乙酸化学剥脱、使用新型解剖器械进行皮下分离术以及在肿胀麻醉下进行CO2激光治疗。这是一项回顾性、非对照、非盲法研究。
单次治疗后的平均改善程度在1至4分的量表上为2.9分,并发症较少。90%的患者对最终结果满意,无需额外治疗。
20%三氯乙酸化学剥脱、皮下分离术和分次CO2激光换肤联合肿胀麻醉在治疗冰锥型痤疮瘢痕方面既安全又有效。
