Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A number of scar revision techniques can be utilized to treat specific types of scars, in combination with each other or with adjunctive therapies to achieve optimal results. Pathological conditions like hypertrophic scars and keloids are still challenging. Though a number of therapies exist to treat keloids, such as intralesional steroids and anti-metabolites, cryosurgery, to name a few, none are definitive in treatment. Understanding the molecular basis of keloids may lead to development of new therapies. Striae, also known as ‘stretch marks’, are extremely common, disfiguring and a real challenge to treat. Management of striae is a neglected field of research. Except for topical retinoids, the efficacy satisfactorily. Current treatment options include chemical peels, lasers and collagen induction therapy, with a tendency towards active intervention. However, studies are necessary to determine treatment strategies which produce results that are effective with minimal adverse effects. Post-acne scarring is one of the most common causes of facial scars, causing considerable cosmetic disability. Acne is a common skin disorder, unfortunately affecting a large number of teenagers. Usually patients have a combination of different types of scars; hence no single modality is useful. A combination of procedures is generally required for a satisfactory cosmetic outcome. The use of fractional lasers is gaining importance, as it is a minimally invasive procedure as compared to aggressive resurfacing procedures of the past. Collagen induction therapy is another promising technique. Today, patients are also getting up-to-date information about the various modalities available for scar treatment through media, such as magazines, advertisements and internet. However, exaggerated advertisements and information from nonprofessional sources, particularly with regard to lasers can influence patient expectations and result in unrealistic expectations. Patients need to understand that deep scars cannot be eliminated fully and can only be improved. They usually have high expectations from procedural techniques. Proper counseling is extremely important for a happy and satisfactory outcome. Current innovations and techniques in scar prevention and management and increasing use of minimally invasive surgeries are paving the way toward smoother, less noticeable scars. Every surgeon practicing aesthetics should be well versed with modalities of scar management and this is the aim of this clinical update.

Book excerpt: ObjectivesHypertrophic burn scars produce significant morbidity, they are functionally insufficient, hypertonic, contracting and causing restriction of movement in joints, flexure regions and body orifices. If scar treatment is to be successful, it must be comprehensive. Lasers to treat scars are most commonly used Vbeam laser, Erbium-YAG and CO2 laser. The primary objectives of laser therapy are to supress scars activity - inflammation, hyperemia and edema, to reduce hypertrophy and to release incipient and mild contractures.MethodsRetrospective analysis of eight-years clinical experience with CO2, Erb-YAG and Vbeam laser therapy and treatment outcomes of hypertrophy post-burn scars.ResultsVbeam laser therapy facilitate spontaneous scar regression and supresses immature scar activity u2013 reduces inflammation, hyperemia and edema. Erb-YAG or CO2 fractional ablative resurfacing significantly reduces height of more mature scars to the level of surrounding healthy skin and reduces the tension of contractioning scars, which leads to release of incipient and mild contractures.ConclusionVbeam, Erbium-YAG and CO2 laser therapy is the effective tool for treatment of hypertrophic post-burn scars and it is desirable to be an integral part of comprehensive scars treatment. Best results are achieved by combined vascular laser and fractional Erbium-YAG or CO2 laser scar revision treatment.
