ABSTRACT:

Background

Fractional picosecond lasers is effective for the treatment of wrinkles or acne scars.

Objective

To investigate the safety and efficacy of treatment with a fractional 1,064-nm picosecond laser with a diffractive optic element for facial wrinkles and acne scars.

Methods

This prospective open-labeled trial comprised 22 subjects with facial wrinkles or acne scars. Subjects received three laser treatments with a fractional 1,064-nm picosecond laser at 3-week intervals.
