Description
Dr Davin Lim and Dr Kathy discuss candidate selection for the 1550nm non-ablative fractional laser - and why the depth of a scar, not its appearance, drives the choice.
Covered in this episode: how the 1550 scatters energy through the skin, why all skin types can be treated, where CO2 lasers suit more superficial scarring, why icepick scars follow a different approach, and the 1.5mm depth limit that applies to any laser.
Part 1 of a series with Dr Davin Lim, dermatologist, and Dr Kathy, cosmetic physician.
