Treatment of Surgical Scars With Fractional Photothemolysis Versus Pulse Dye Laser

1. Evaluate the efficacy of the Fraxel SR laser to improve the cosmetic appearance of surgical scars, both in terms of pigmentary and textural changes. 2. Evaluate the efficacy of the V-Beam Pulse Dye laser, a standard non-ablative laser which is utilized for the treatment of the erythematous and telangiectasia component of surgical scars. 3. Comparison of the outcome of the half of the surgical scar treated with Fraxel SR laser versus the outcome of the contralateral half of the surgical scar which will be treated with the V-Beam Pulse Dye Laser.
