    Abstract Background: Atrophic scars cause significant patient morbidity. Fractional photothermolysis is one of the most effective treatment options used to resurface scars of different etiologies.
    Aims: To assess the efficacy and safety of different fractional ablative CO
    Methods: A prospective pilot study of 20 adult male patients (skin types Π- Ⅳ, aged 18-45) with post-traumatic atrophic linear scars were divided into 2 groups each comprising 10 patients receiving different fractional CO
    Results: The study showed statistically significant reduction in average scar volume in both groups (P < .01), with reduction in depth more obvious than reduction in width or length in both groups. There was a highly significant difference in overall scar improvement represented by scar volume between both groups (P < .01) with an average reduction in scar volume of 42.85% in group (a) compared with 35.29% in group (b). Also, there was a highly statistically significant increase in both epidermal and papillary and reticular dermis thickness in both groups after treatment. However, the difference between both groups was nonsignificant. Side effects were mild, well tolerated, and transient.
    Conclusion: Fractional CO

    Abstract Objective: To provide retrospective clinical review of some uncommonly reported side effects of long-pulsed alexandrite laser treatment for hair removal.
    Material and methods: Two hundred and fifty female patients suffering from hirsutism of the face were subjected to treatment by long pulse alexandrite laser for a maximum of 15 sessions per patient at 5- to 7-week intervals.
    Results: Apart from the commonly reported side effects of pigmentary changes, occasional blistering and rare scarring, other untoward effects have been observed. These include - among others - de-novo growth of hair outside the area treated by laser, potentiation of co-existing vellus hair in the treatment area, induction or aggravation of acne, rosacea-like rash, premature grayness of hair, tunneling of hair under the skin, prolonged diffuse redness and edema of the face, focal hypopigmentation of the lip, angular cheilitis, allergic reaction to the cooling gas, and inflammatory and pigmentary changes of pre-existing nevi.
    Conclusion: Although the efficacy of long-pulsed alexandrite laser seems unmistakable, the short- and long-term untoward effects of such treatment have yet to be carefully delineated and the underlying mechanisms are yet to be adequately clarified.
