How fractional laser scar removal works?
Successful scar treatment requires deep energy penetration through the epidermis and into the reticular dermis to activate a dramatic healing response. By creating micro-columns of coagulated tissue that extend through the epidermis into the dermis, the Lux1540 triggers a wound healing response that removes the coagulated tissue and replaces it with healthy tissue. The intact tissue surrounding each microscopic wound will allow for quick re-epithelialization of the treated scarring tissue. Because the 1540 nm wavelength is selectively absorbed by water in the tissue, it is safe for all skin types. The proximity of healthy tissue to the micro-column boundaries enables the migration of normal melanocytes which contributes to rapid pigment re-normalization.
