ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Acne scars present a complex challenge in dermatology and cosmetics, despite advancements in technological interventions such as fractional lasers, microneedling, and surgical procedures. Effective treatment remains elusive for many individuals.OBJECTIVE:
This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of rotational fractional resection using 1 mm diameter rotating scalpels as a primary treatment for icepick and boxcar scars on the cheeks and glabella region.METHODS:
Three patients with acne scars underwent a single treatment session of rotational fractional resection. Evaluation occurred at the 2-month post-treatment mark to assess improvements in scar appearance and potential skin-related side effects.RESULTS:
Following the treatment, significant improvements were observed in the targeted acne scars. Notable enhancements were noted without major skin-related adverse effects, except for minor suture marks.CONCLUSION:
The outcomes of this study underscore the potential of rotational fractional resection as an innovative and effective approach in treating acne scars. This single-session cosmetic procedure shows promise in yielding lasting and quantifiable results, offering a hopeful solution for individuals seeking comprehensive acne scar treatment.Key words
