area. The mechanically emulsied autologous fat referred to as nanofat contains no vivid adipo­cytes. It retains its regenerative potential because the stromal vascular fraction (SVF) that survives the emulsication process contains broblasts, endothelial cells, pre-adipocytes, vascular smooth muscle cells, lymphocytes, monocytes, and ADSCs [20] that are responsible for the prolifera­tive, and subsequent lling effects of nanofat [22]. It has shown remarkable effects in skin regenera­tion after injection [23] (Figs.6, 7, and 8).
Adverse effects: Donor site hematoma and irregularities. Oil cysts and calcications. Variable retention rate and unpredictability of effect.
Therapeutic application: Use tumescent anes­thesia with standard aseptic precaution. The fat
harvesting can be done with one-way harvesting cannulas or a triport Colemans cannula with Luer Lock syringes. Leave the aspirate undisturbed in a vertical position for 15min. Discard the tumes­cent uid separating on the bottom of the syringe. The aspirated fat can now be emulsied using a Luer Lock single or 3-way connector passing between two syringes 30 times (microfat) or 60 times (nanofat). Sieve the emulsion through a two-layered moist saline surgical gauze to remove all solid elements to ensure free ow through a 27 G needle.

Inject intralesionally into the scar using a 27 G needle. Yellowish blanching of the scar marks the end point of injection [17].
Clinical Tip
Use nanofat grafting with PRPs in combi­nation with needling or other resurfacing procedures to achieve best outcomes.
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) andRelated Treatments
PRP consists of plasma that is enriched with a high concentration of platelets. The effect of PRP on scars, atrophic scars in particular, is under­stood through the release of growth factors. Furthermore, PRP generates hyaluronic acid, which is also a promotor of cell proliferation and extracellular matrix formation in addition to the known effect of drawing water into the matrix, causing swelling, volume, and skin turgor. PRP has been studied mostly as adjunctive therapy to other treatment modalities like micro-needling and fractional ablative laser [16].
Conclusion
Intralesional therapy is an established key com­ponent in the treatment of abnormal scarring with proven good results. It can be used in a prophy­lactic setting or in active hypertrophic scars. In keloids, a combination of several intralesional treatments or a multimodal approach can lead to better results. Always reassess therapeutic suc­cess and consider a change or addition to the treatment in the absence of satisfactory results.
In non-hypertrophic and atrophic scars, autol­ogous intralesional therapy plays an important and effective role in the correction of contour and improvement of scar quality and pigmentation.

combination with the other techniques developed in the other chapters.
The psychological experience of a scar must also be considered, especially as the “miracle of the laser” can sometimes disappoint the patient. Therefore, “Primum non nocere,” not all scars should be treated by laser.
We wish to be as synthetic and practical as possible in the development of this chapter with a certain bias that may be subject to discussion. Thus, we will review the available devices and the therapeutic proposals for scars of less than 100days and more than 100 days and of course acne scars. Why 100days or around 3months is a bias but also a clinical observation beyond which a healing is on the right way or not and when patients usually wish to intervene because the scar does not disappear as they would like. Of course, it is possible to intervene at other times in the life of a scar because in most cases, every­thing happens according to the normal evolution of a healing process.
Laser andOther Electromagnetic Devices
A distinction is made between photonic devices and other devices that deliver a direct heat source without targeting a particular tissue.
A LASER is dened by its wavelength, which is monochromatic photon emission (Light Amplication by Stimulated Emission of Radiation). The laser emits light that is absorbed by three essential skin targets: pigment, vascular, i.e., everything that is red, and water. The beam of photons emitted by the laser, like all other electromagnetic sources, is converted into heat or thermal effect by the target. Nevertheless, there are radiation effects: photocoagulation, photo thermolysis, photoacoustic, and photoablation.
It is important to remember that the thermal energy released will alter the skin tissue and induce its remodeling and structural modica­tion. In this respect, the ratio of delivered energy, wave penetration, and duration of the thermal effect is also important to obtain the desired result.
It should also be kept in mind that a laser or other sources penetrate deeply into the skin. This is an essential element to consider because if you have a thick scar and the photons remain on the surface, there will be a minor impact in the long term. But this penetrance must be correlated to its absorption in the tissues that stop and absorb the waves. This is the anisotropy that is very variable according to the nature of the scar tissue and the color of the skin.
Laser
Ablative Laser, Ablative Fractional Laser (AFL)
There are two possible wavelengths CO2 (10,600 nm Fig. 1) and Erbium:YAG laser (2940nm, Er:YAG=yttrium-aluminum-garnet). These two lasers have the function of vaporizing, coagulating, and remodeling skin tissue. Depending on their mode of operation, they can abrade a surface for a classic mode-locked mode for a resurfacing or in a fractional mode but with a variable density of MTZ (microthermal zone) to create thermal columns whose density, size of the points, and depth of penetration are function of each indication: retractile or mature scar, drug delivery (laser-assisted drug delivery=LADD).
The difference between these two wavelengths and their use is a matter of debate for the respec-

tive users. Simply put, the CO2 laser induces greater and more penetrating thermal damage while the Er: YAG laser induces a gentler and more precise dermabrasion.
In fractional mode, the dots or spot size of a CO2 laser can vary in diameter from 120 microns (max depth 3.5 mm) to 1.3 mm (max depth
0.3mm). You can use both for a remodeling and a resurfacing combination in the same session but with a higher risk of side effects (Fig.2).
The Er: YAG laser is not very coagulant, even though its emission time can be modulated to

1500 μs. It is also possible to stack the shots with variable uence or time emission to combine thermal and penetrating effects (max depth
1.5–2mm). These two lasers abrade or reshape scars pro-
le by breaking the collagen bers. The resurfac­ing mode with these two lasers is also possible, which leaves no space in the healthy skin and is particularly effective, but with variable effects in terms of healing, from 5 to 10days.
In fractional mode, as a creation of spaced
skin wells, healing is faster than in resurfacing mode (Fig. 3). This often requires several ses­sions to obtain a result, but they also allow the penetration of active ingredients such as corti­coids, which are particularly useful for highly inammatory, hypertrophic, or even keloid scars. The procedure is called laser-assisted drug deliv­ery (LADD) [1].
The optimal depth is difcult to determine
because studies report that drug deposition depends on both the anisotropy of the scars and skin areas, the laser sequences, the type of AFL and the drugs. The increasing laser uence and irradiation time will increase cellular uptake of large molecules through the skin in a dose­dependent manner, but it is not that simple. If the barrier of the thermal columns is too coagulated, or if the drug applied is too late after the session, the drugs will not be able to penetrate. Similarly, drugs diffusion is also variable depending on their intrinsic nature.

The parameters of these devices vary, and we can only advise you to follow the settings of the laboratories or those of the publications which refer to them. To reshape a scar, it is nec­essary to penetrate to an estimated depth of 50–75% into the thickness of the scar 4a, b and
5a–d.
There are no standardized settings but Matteo Clementoni recommends to keep the following in mind:
– The thicker the lesion, the higher the energy
will be.
– The higher the energy is, the lower the density
will be.
– In a thick retractive bundle, consider different
directions of the shots.
– Consider multiple passes instead of increasing
the density of the shots.
Case 1 Post Hemangioma Scar of the UpperLip
See Fig. 4a, b.
– A pinpoint bleeding is a good endpoint (if the
time emission of a CO2 is less than 1 ms).
– For a collagen remodeling and to avoid a sur-
rounding burn to the scar, reduce energy if you see a skin contraction.
– Consider a supercial fractional ablation to
improve the aesthetic appearance.
– With a supercial handpiece use very low
energy and high frequency to sculpt the super­cial irregularities or prefer the use of Er: YAG to CO2.
When applicable, the combined-mode Er: YAG + CO2 can offer synergistic benet of abla­tive and coagulation effect. However, it is dif­cult to determine superiority between modalities due to the clinical heterogeneity, settings, combi­nation, and lack of comparative study design.

Comments
There were clear improvements in the textural dif­ferences but it needed numerous sessions to reduce scars and dilated pores. The risk of perma­nent hypochromia must also be taken into account. And too high a uence, too long a shooting time, and too high a density can induce this secondary

effect. The debate is open to consider that one or two aggressive sessions are better than several accumulated sessions. It is a balance between the variable healing effects of thermal aggression and the risk of causing hypochromic scars.
Non-ablative Lasers
Non-ablative Fractional Laser (NAFL)
The modeling of NAFLs is described in the Princeps Publication [2].
There are two main types of laser: the erbium- glass, 1540–1550–1565 nm, and the Nd: YAP laser, 1340nm. They act in a fraction­ated mode with a variable pulse time, density, and size of points. Due to the thermal columns they induce, the photons penetrate between 1 and 2 mm, allowing scar remodeling without creating skin vaporization. Unlike ablative lasers, there is therefore no scar desiccation phase (Fig. 6). There is no crust, and the heal­ing time is short, less than 48–72h with slight skin swelling and redness for a few days (Fig.
7a, b).

Comments
Non-ablative fractional lasers have the advan­tage of minimal postoperative effects with light swelling and redness for a few days. There is no crusting and the risk of infection is minimal. They are increasingly proposed before ablative lasers even if the result is much more progres­sive and sometimes in plateau after a few ses­sions. New device combines AFL and NAFL in the same session, by example CO2 plus 1570nm and ultrasound but we need more data to conclude.
Non-ablative, Non-fractional Laser
The 1210nm diode laser is the main one. To our knowledge, it is the only one in its category developed and used immediately after a surgical suture. Its particularity is its portability (750g), and the complete automation of its settings to heat a skin surface of 2cm2 per shot always at the same temperature (maximum 53 °C) automati­cally matching the skin heat in contact with the handpiece.
The wavelength allows us to treat all skin col­ors. It is advisable to use only colorless threads under the skin (external threads are not, however, contraindicated) so as not to concentrate the pho­tons on colored threads, particularly black ones. Indeed, this can create heat points that are harm­ful to a fresh scar.
Vascular Lasers
The so-called vascular lasers focus on the vascu­lar network. Apart from a hypochromic and atro­phic scar, these lasers are useful alone or combined to reduce an inammatory process or a
scar that remains red, the result of a dilated vas­cular network.
Pulsed Dye Laser 595nm (PDL)
The rst pulsed dye laser emitted at 585nm, sys­tematically inducing purpura, i.e., photothermol­ysis of the vascular network. The latest generations emit 595nm for a higher penetration (estimated 1–2 mm) and can vary the emission time in photothermolysis or photocoagulation. In the rst case, the privileged target remains the vascular pattern. The purpura is caused by dam­aged vascular walls. The settings range is in between 0.5 and 6ms: 6 and 10J/cm2, with vari­able spot size 5–10mm, considered as an inter­mediate sub-purpuric mode.
In the second case, as the emission time is longer (beyond 6ms), there is no or very little purpura but a thermal effect which can be inter­esting also in a scarring process in progress or for vessels of diameter greater than 1mm (Fig.
8a, b).
It is necessary to integrate the adjustment of the delivered energy which varies the target effect, the thermal effect, and the penetrance of the pho­tons. The aim of vascular lasers and particularly the pulsed dye laser is to destroy capillary destruc­tion, generate hypoxemia, and reduce collagen production. In fact, it is not so simple because these lasers promote the production of neocolla­genesis, break brous bridges by the intrinsic photonic effect, and release collagenase- type metalloproteinases (MMPs). What is paradoxical is that eventually, despite the inammatory cas­cade that it provokes, the scar does not suffer from a laser burn [3].
