Objectives: Fractional photothermolysis is characterized by the creation of microscopic zones of thermal damage with spatial separation between the columns of damaged tissue and the columns of untreated tissue. The depth of each column can be controlled by the pulse energy. With nonablative fractional resurfacing, a parallel column of heated, but not ablated tissue, extends down into the dermis.
Introduction: The same concept has been expanded into ablative fractional resurfacing by using the carbon dioxide wavelength of 10,600 nm. In comparison with the nonablative fractionated devices, the fractional ablative lasers heat tissue much more intensely, causing vaporization of tissue while significantly heating adjacent dermal collagen.
Materials / method: The immense volume of collateral heating causes thermal alterations of the helical structure of collagen molecules and results in tissue tightening. Ablative lasers are more effective than non-ablative lasers. However, the risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation is
Results: A specially designed point-array compression tip for fractional non-ablative laser was been investigated. Point-array compression can enhance the clinical efficacy without further complications. Point-array compression tip is available with non-ablative fractional lasers, but not for ablative fractional lasers. More recently, fractional RF devices were investigated with low epidermal disruption and high dermal impact. Single-pass bipolar needle-RF treatment through five 32 g-needle electrode pairs at a preselected real-time fixed temperature of 50 to 62°C, energy duration for 3 to 5 seconds ca
Conclusion: Real time temperature controlled FRF is a highly reproducible, safe, effective nonsurgical treatment of face and neck rhytides and laxity and provides important insights into neocollagenesis, neoelastogenesis, and clinical outcomes.
Fractional RF devices are color blind and the risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation is lower than lasers especially in Asians.
