Resumo

Objectives: The primary objective of this lecture is to explore new treatment options for acne scars, focusing on Endo Radiofrequency (RF) and hybrid lasers with 1550nm/1925nm wavelengths. We aim to provide an in-depth understanding of these technologies, evaluating their mechanisms, efficacy, and safety. Attendees will learn about clinical outcomes, patient selection criteria, and practical application strategies to enhance their ability to offer effective acne scar treatments. Introduction: Acne scars significantly affect patients' quality of life, posing a challenge in dermatological treatments. Recent technological advancements have introduced innovative solutions like Endo RF and hybrid lasers. Endo RF is a minimally invasive technique that delivers controlled RF energy beneath the skin surface for precise dermal remodeling. Hybrid lasers combine non-ablative and ablative wavelengths, targeting both superficial and deeper skin layers for comprehensive scar improvement. Materials / method: This lecture will examine the mechanisms and application of Endo RF and hybrid lasers. Endo RF involves the use of a specialized device to deliver RF energy subdermally, promoting collagen remodeling. Hybrid lasers utilize dual wavelengths of 1550nm and 1925nm to achieve both superficial and deep skin resurfacing. We will discuss patient selection criteria, treatment protocols, and the integration of these technologies into clinical practice. Results: Clinical practice have demonstrated significant improvements in acne scar appearance using Endo RF and hybrid lasers. Patients experienced enhanced skin texture and reduced scar visibility with minimal downtime. The combination of RF energy and dual-wavelength laser technology allows for targeted treatment of various scar types, providing versatile and effective solutions. Attendees will gain insights into these promising results and their implications for clinical practice. Conclusion: Endo RF and hybrid lasers represent significant advancements in the treatment of acne scars, offering effective and minimally invasive options. By understanding the mechanisms, efficacy, and safety of these technologies, practitioners can enhance their treatment repertoire. This lecture aims to equip attendees with the knowledge and skills to implement these innovative solutions, ultimately improving patient outcomes and satisfaction in acne scar management.
