Abstract
Objectives: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical effectiveness of acupotomy in the treatment of various facial atrophic scars except acne scars. Methods: Four patients with facial atrophic scars were treated by superficial dermal undermining with acupotomy. They were treated six times, and evaluated by comparing before and after photos, PGA(Physician's Global assessment), SESES(The Stony Brook Scar Evaluation Score) and patient satisfaction. Results and Conclusions: After observing case photos, PGA, SBSES, patient’s satisfaction, it can be considered that acupotomy is an effective treatment modality for facial atrophic scars and it has no significant side effects.
