- Abstract
- With an increasing demand for noninvasive skin rejuvenation techniques, several light-based devices have been introduced. Due to its ability to deliver thermal energy from the superficial to deeper levels of the dermis, a combined triple-wavelength laser (755 nm, 810 nm, and 1064 nm) can be used for skin rejuvenation. The objective of this study was to assess the effectiveness and safety of a combined triple-wavelength laser for skin rejuvenation. A total of 28 female patients seeking skin rejuvenation treatment were included. All patients underwent five consecutive treatment sessions at a two-week interval. Clinical improvement of aging-related cutaneous change was noted by the treating dermatologists and patients. Biopsies were performed on the faces of consenting patients before and two weeks after the final treatment. Significant clinical improvements were observed by both patients and evaluating dermatologists. Based on the patient satisfaction questionnaire, 78% of patients reported a self-assessed improvement of more than 25%. Additionally, 86% of patients showed an improvement of more than 25% on objective assessment by dermatologists. Histopathological findings revealed increased collagen and elastic bundles throughout the dermis. Except for transient pain during treatment, no serious adverse effects were reported. The findings of this study suggest that the combined triple-wavelength laser may be an effective and safe nonablative option for skin rejuvenation.
