The combination of a trichloracetic acid 20% chemical peel, subcision, and fractional CO2 laser resurfacing combined with tumescent anesthesia is both safe and effective in the treatment of rolling acne scars, a recent study found. Researchers evaluated 114 patients (75 women and 39 men) with predominately rolling acne scars who were treated with a 20% trichloracetic chemical peel, subcision with a novel dissecting instrument, and the CO2 laser under tumescent anesthesia. They found:

• The mean improvement after a single treatment was 2.9 on a scale of 1 to 4 with few complications.

• 90% of the patients were satisfied with their final result and desired no additional treatment.
