چکیده
Acne is a common disease and patients frequently suffer from its distressing sequela of scarring which affects their quality life. The treatment strategy for acne scars usually influenced by multiple factors we need to choose the best fit amongst various therapeutic modalities available. Lasers are increasingly being used fractional ablative lasers create microthermal zones leading collagen regeneration reorganization in target area. Fractional carbon dioxide laser has shown clinical efficacy skin renewal atrophic scars. Patient selection, counseling, pre, postprocedure care guidelines form essential influencing procedure outcomes. Here discuss practical aspects use scar management along with pointers on patient pre care, side effects.
