"The latest trends in aesthetics and scar treatment are more and more focused on integrating regenerative skin care with invasive procedures – and plant exosomes are becoming a powerful player in this arena. Plant-derived exosomes are packed with growth factors, peptides and antioxidants that work synergistically to help accelerate skin renewal following treatments. When combined with microneedling, RF (radiofrequency) microneedling or laser resurfacing, they're showing promising results in enhanced healing, reduced downtime and amplified collagen production following treatment, as well as when combined with potent concentrations of All-Trans Retinol and other collagen stimulators. Microneedling remains a staple for treating acne scars due to its ability to stimulate natural skin repair, especially when paired with exosome enhancement. Fractional lasers and RF microneedling continue to evolve, offering more precise energy delivery that treats deeper scars with minimal surface damage. Additionally, new LED and microcurrent devices are being used post-treatment to soothe the skin and maximize exosome absorption, ultimately yielding smoother, more even skin texture."

"The introduction of laser technology has revolutionized scar management in breast reduction surgery. Where traditional methods like silicone-based products and mechanical massage were once the standard, lasers like those from Aerolase offer a modern, effective alternative. With patient-reported outcomes backing the effectiveness and safety of these lasers, it is clear that Reverse by Aerolase protocol represents a significant step forward in minimizing postoperative scarring and maximizing patient satisfaction. The Reverse by Aerolase protocol harnesses the power of two state-of-the-art lasers: the Neo Elite and the Era Elite. Individually, each device yields remarkable outcomes, but their combined use significantly enhances the appearance of scar tissue, redness, texture and underlying pigment. By incorporating advanced laser technology, this protocol not only enhances the aesthetic outcome but also positively impacts the psychological well-being of patients. We can expect to see the role of laser therapy in postoperative care to become increasingly vital in achieving the best possible results for all patients."
