✦ Synopsis

SUMMARY

Laser skin resurfacing has revolutionized the approach to facial skin rejuvenation over the last decade. It has also added an approach to managing both atrophic and hypertrophic scars. This paper will review the basic principles of laser skin resurfacing, the different lasers used, the approach to treatment and potential complications of the procedure, followed by a discussion of future prospects in the field.
