Abstract

The study highlights the comparative effectiveness of surgical scar re-orientation combined with fractional laser resurfacing versus isolated laser treatment for linear facial scars. The results demonstrated that patients who underwent the combined approach achieved superior outcomes in terms of scar appearance and psychological satisfaction. This study can encourage the re-evaluation of addressing scars and further emphasizes the need for treatment plans that combine surgical and non-surgical modalities to optimize patient outcomes and their quality of life. Future studies with larger sample sizes and randomized controlled trials are recommended to further validate these findings.
