Lasers in Surgery and Medicine 42:113,(2010) : Summary Pulsed Dye Laser ( nm) Hypertrophic & Erythematous Scars Pre-Scars Early striae Fractional (ablative and non-ablative) Atrophic scars Burn or traumatic scars Match depth laser to depth of scar with low density (optical coherence tomography) Laser-assisted drug delivery Early or late striae Summary Several laser techniques are available for the safe and effective treatment of various types of scars. Individualize and combine devices to customize the treatment to the characteristics and depth of the scar. Although long-standing scars will respond to laser therapy, new scars are more amenable to treatment; therefore, prompt treatment is recommended. Debate remains on the best timing for treatment initiation. Thank you! drpaul@dermlasersurgery.com + February 17,
