Hypertrophic Scar New Skin Laser (Pinhole Technique): What Sets Our Clinic Apart

Achieving satisfactory improvement for scars may be difficult with just a specific laser treatment.

The New Skin Laser treatment at our clinic is a delicate, customized procedure that considers the unique characteristics of each scar, in line with our treatment philosophy.

1. CO₂ and Erbium-YAG Lasers are carefully selected based on the treatment area.

For wide and firm scars, we use a CO₂ laser to induce strong stimulation.

For areas with thin or sensitive skin, an Erbium-YAG laser allows for a more delicate approach.

Our medical team thoroughly understands the characteristics of each area and directly determines the treatment method.

2. We adjust the spacing and size of the pinholes to match each individual scar.

In typical procedures, a spacing of 1-2mm is the standard.

However, depending on the scar's condition, the spacing may be widened to 3mm or more, or the procedure may be performed more densely.

Our medical team directly confirms the exact location, shape, and thickness of the scar, then adjusts the pinhole spacing and depth accordingly for the procedure.

3. We precisely design the treatment depth, targeting either the upper or lower dermis.

Depending on the treatment area, we determine whether to stimulate superficially or penetrate deeper.

In some cases, only the upper dermis is stimulated,

and in other cases, we may access the collagen layer in the lower dermis.

The scope of treatment is individually determined based on the professional judgment of our medical team.

Such detailed processes can be difficult to execute without extensive experience and specialized know-how.

4. This is not a mechanical procedure; our medical team directly handles everything from the initial design to the actual treatment.

Our medical team consults directly with each patient before proceeding with the treatment.

Our medical team carefully checks the patient's lesion condition directly,

and carefully designs the position and spacing of the pinholes, considering the characteristics of each scar.

The laser intensity is also delicately adjusted to match the patient's skin condition.

After the procedure, we continuously monitor the recovery process,

and provide detailed guidance on whether to proceed with the next treatment and the appropriate interval.

Understanding Hypertrophic Scar New Skin Laser (Pinhole Technique)

The New Skin Laser (Pinhole Technique) is a specialized method of scar management.

This procedure uses CO₂ or Erbium-YAG laser to create micro-holes at 1-3mm intervals within raised scars. The principle is to break the connections of excessively proliferated collagen tissue.

Through this process, the scar structure is loosened, and over time, the scar can be expected to gradually flatten, leading to improvement.

This procedure can penetrate deeper than typical Fraxel lasers. Rather than simply abrading the scar surface, it accesses deep into the dermal layer, which can be particularly helpful for improving papular or hypertrophic scars.
