Benefits of Multi-Pass Laser Skin Rejuvenation Treatments

In a 2008 study, patients who underwent multi-pass laser skin rejuvenation treatments experienced benefits such as less pain, faster healing, decreased post-laser erythema, and quicker resolution of erythema compared to those who did not receive the treatments. They also had shorter operative times, fewer postoperative visits, and easier wound care, with no significant post-laser complications like hypertrophic scarring observed. Biopsies from five patients indicated that thermal damage was confined to the papillary dermis, sparing the reticular dermis, suggesting that the non-debriding technique used is a safe method for skin rejuvenation. Some patients also had additional cosmetic procedures performed concurrently.
