LASER FOR SCARS / KELOIDS / SKIN GROWTHS

How Fractional CO₂ Laser Treatment Works

Laser treatment

Laser treatment for scars—including surgical scars and keloids—can improve skin texture and appearance. Among modern techniques, Fractional CO₂ laser is a well-established option for skin rejuvenation and scar reduction. When considering laser treatment for surgical scars, Fractional CO₂ laser provides benefits for both cosmetic and medical purposes.

Available in Singapore, Fractional CO₂ laser is an ablative skin resurfacing technique that can address signs of ageing, acne scars, and other skin concerns. The procedure follows the principle of ‘fractional photothermolysis’, where the laser creates microscopic punctures in targeted areas of the skin.

Fractional CO₂ laser affects only a fraction of the skin, leaving surrounding tissue intact. After the procedure, the treated areas appear as tiny, faint spots. Because healthy skin remains between these micro-injuries, the healing process is accelerated. Over time, the skin’s natural repair mechanism stimulates new collagen production, which improves the appearance of wrinkles, pigmentation, and scars.

Conditions treated with fractional CO₂ laser

  • Acne and other atrophic scars
  • Superficial benign skin growths
  • Photoageing (fine lines, rough texture, superficial pigmentation)
 

DEKA SMARTXIDE TOUCH LASER

* Deka Smartxide Touch is among the Fractional CO₂ lasers available for aesthetic use.

SmartXide Touch DOT RF
 

The Smartxide Touch laser utilises an RF CO₂ source with PSD® technology, delivering fractional laser pulses with adjustable pulse shapes, peak power, energy, and duration. This system is commonly used for anti-ageing treatments, acne scars, surgical scars, pigmented lesions, skin tightening, and wrinkle reduction, as well as supporting scar improvement.

CO₂ LASER WITH BIOPOLAR RADIOFREQUENCY (RF) 

FCO2 Scanner
A key feature of this procedure is the integration of bipolar radiofrequency (RF) energy, delivered through specialised spacers. This combined approach provides:
  • Selective, deep, and localised skin heating
  • Enhancing the effects of CO₂ laser
The synergistic effect of laser and RF energy contributes to:
  • Tissue remodelling
  • Skin tightening
  • Stimulation of new collagen production
The Deka Smartxide DOT/RF therapy reaches multiple skin layers, offering treatment effects that differ from conventional fractional resurfacing. This procedure targets deeper skin structures while maintaining safety protocols.

OBSERVED BENEFITS:

  • Overall skin texture
  • Scar appearance
  • Pore size reduction
  • Wrinkle minimisation
At Angeline Yong Dermatology in Singapore, this combined laser and RF approach supports deeper skin repair and renewal. Due to its dual-action mechanism, it is a widely used option for scar treatment and skin revitalisation.
