초록
Scar management remains a challenging aspect of dermatology, necessitating effective but minimally invasive treatment modalities. The emergence of the Q-Nd:YAG laser with a MDF handpiece offers a promising solution, combining fractional laser therapy with precise MDF. The present case reports present the initial clinical experiences with this technology in scar resurfacing. This paper describes seven cases involving traumatic and acne scars, treated with the MDF handpiece at 1,064 nm in four sessions spaced one month apart. The treatment yielded significant improvements with minimal adverse effects and high patient satisfaction. The ability of clinicians to tailor the treatment parameters with a Q-Nd:YAG laser, MDF handpiece provided precise control over scar resurfacing, offering a favorable therapeutic option for scar management. This paper highlights the potential of the Q-Nd:YAG laser, MDF handpiece in enhancing the appearance of skin affected by traumatic injuries, underscoring its role as an innovative tool in scar revision therapy.
