ABSTRACT
Acne may lead to long term squelae including physical scars. Lasers have been used with variable degree of success but literature pertaining to Asian population is sparse. To evaluate the efficacy and safety of carbon dioxide [CO[2]] fractional laser in the treatment of acne scars in the local population. Twenty patients with mild to moderate atrophic acne scars were registered and subjected to monthly fractional CO[2] laser resurfacing for six sessions and final evaluation was done six months after the last treatment. More than 71% patients showed variable degree of improvement. No severe long term complications were noted in any patient. Study suggests that CO[2] Fractional laser may prove a useful addition in the management of acne scars in our patients as well
