New Skin Laser [Surgical/Burn Scar Skin Texture Care]

Differentiated Treatment with Hypertrophic Scar Resurfacing Laser (Pinhole Technique)

Scars may be difficult to improve satisfactorily with a single laser treatment.

Our resurfacing laser treatment is customized to consider the unique characteristics of each individual scar.

1. Selecting the Appropriate Laser for Each Area (CO₂ & Erbium-YAG)

For broad or firm scars, CO₂ laser is used to apply the necessary stimulation.

Conversely, for thin or sensitive areas, the Erbium-YAG laser allows for a more delicate approach.

Our medical team directly assesses the unique characteristics of the treatment area to determine the most suitable laser.

2. Custom Adjustment of Pinhole Spacing and Size

The pinhole spacing is typically set to 1-2mm, but

depending on the scar's condition and type, it can be widened to 3mm or more, or treated more densely.

Our medical team carefully examines the scar's location, shape, and thickness to adjust the pinhole spacing and depth accordingly.

3. Precise Design of Dermal Ablation Depth (Upper & Lower)

The decision of whether to apply shallow or deeper laser stimulation

involves carefully considering whether to stimulate only the upper dermis,

or to reach the collagen layer in the lower dermis.

Based on the medical team's judgment and each patient's scar characteristics, an individualized treatment range is set.

Such precise procedures require ample experience and expertise from the medical team.

4. Customized Treatment Performed Directly by the Medical Team (From Design to Execution)

Our medical team conducts direct consultations with patients before commencing treatment.

They directly examine the scar lesions,

and design the pinhole locations and spacing according to the shape and size of each scar.

The laser intensity is finely adjusted for treatment, taking into account the patient's skin condition.

We meticulously monitor the recovery process after the procedure,

and provide detailed guidance on the necessity and appropriate intervals for any subsequent additional treatments.

Understanding Hypertrophic Scar Resurfacing Laser (Pinhole Technique)

The resurfacing laser (pinhole technique)

creates micro-holes with 1-3mm spacing inside raised, convex scars using CO₂ or Erbium-YAG lasers. This gently severs the connections of excessively proliferated collagen tissue.

As a result, this treatment helps to make the scar tissue structure more flexible, aiding in the gradual flattening of the scar.

This treatment is characterized by its ability to penetrate deeper compared to general Fraxel treatments. Instead of merely abrading the scar surface, it accesses deep into the dermis, making it a suitable consideration for papular and hypertrophic scars that require improvement.
