AB  - Although  promising  in  their  potential,  ablative  approaches  to  rejuvenating  photodamaged  skin,  including  both  CO2  and  Er:YAG  laser  technology,  are  sometimes  accompanied  by  untoward  side  effects  and  complications.  The  most  common  of  these  is  postoperative  erythema,  experienced  by  virtually  all  patients  treated  with  ablative  resurfacing.  Other  potential  risks  induced  by  these  dermal  wounding  lasers  consist  of  delayed  healing,  postoperative  pigmentary  changes,  and  scarring,  which  may  be  seen  not  only  in  patients  with  lower  Fitzpatrick  skin  types,  but  also  in  patients  with  higher  Fitzpatrick  skin  types.  These  risks,  in  addition  to  a  prolonged  recovery  period  after  treatment,  have  prompted  the  development  of  nonablative  and  more  recently,  fractionated  resurfacing  technologies.
