VIDEO: Lasers – The scar treatment tools you already have

DANA POINT, CALIF. – When you think of lasers, do you consider them as the standard of care for treatment of a range of scars, from dog bites to burns? If not, Dr. Jill Waibel, director of the Miami Dermatology and Laser Institute, thinks you should.

"The sooner you get the lasers on the scars, the better," she emphasizes in this video, recorded during Summit in Aesthetic Medicine 2014. "They [lasers] are both preventative and therapeutic."

Dermatologists can combine lasers and medications that they already have in their practices to great effect to help make scars nearly invisible, Dr. Waibel explained at the meeting, held by Global Academy for Medical Education.

Dr. Waibel disclosed that she has financial relationships with Alma, Syneron/Candela, Sciton, Lutronics, and Lumenis.
