Clinical Experiences in Asian Skin with the New Ablative Fractional Er:YAG Laser Technology (Summary)
This study highlights fractional skin resurfacing, which initiates the body's wound-healing response, stimulating fibroblasts to produce new collagen and elastin, while the surrounding unaffected and intact tissue promotes rapid healing.
SMOOTH® Resurfacing by Hyper Stacking of Er:YAG Laser Pulses, a Histological and Clinical Study
The results of this study are consistent with previous reports that smooth-resurfacing with Er:YAG laser possesses a unique, non-ablative regenerative characteristic, whereas the standard deep-thermal coagulation is accompanied and enhanced by an additional intense heat-shock biomodulation mechanism.
Full Face Resurfacing in One Procedure
This study highlights a 72 year old patient with signs of chronological aging such as ptosis of the upper eyelid of moderate degree, an abundance of small and medium-deep wrinkles all over the face, skin dyschromia, multiple keratomas and hyperkeratosis, pronounced nasolabial folds and general skin sagging.
CASE REPORT: Skin Resurfacing with Er:YAG – The Lost Art of Deep Skin Resurfacing
This paper reports on a case of treatment of a severely damaged skin utilizing a 2940 nm Er:YAG laser (Dualis SP, Fotona). Impressive visual results can be achieved using a combination of planar (full spot) and fractional ablative Er:YAG short pulses.
Clinical and Histological Evaluation of Er:YAG Ablative Fractional Skin Resurfacing
This study highlights that the wound healing process after Er:YAG fractional treatment is significantly shorter compared to full-beam ablative treatment and results in milder side effects.
New Options and Treatment Strategies with the VSP Erbium YAG Aesthetics Lasers
This study highlights the introduction of VSP technology, which provides square-shaped laser pulses without heating surrounding tissue structures, making Er:YAG laser treatments far more predictable. This leads to superior treatment outcomes with less discomfort and fewer side effects.
Ablation and Thermal Depths in VSP Er:YAG Laser Skin Resurfacing
This study presents the advanced VSP Er:YAG technology, which enables practitioners to easily adjust the laser treatment modality to the patient type and treated indication. This version enhances clarity by tightening the phrasing.
