I am 14 months post-op and so frustrated with my hypertrophic scars. I've had steroid injections and they have helped a little. Will a 1540 Laser help?

Answer: Surgical Scar Treatment We start with the ICON 1540 fractional nonablative laser. Multiple treatments at least 1 month apart will be needed to improve the appearance. We sometimes start as early as 2 weeks after surgery on a healthy healing scar.

Answer: 1540 for surgical scar We've had good results using non-ablative fractional therapy such as 1540 for post surgical scars. Often time, we combine the treatment with vascular lasers such as IPL or PDL as well as intralesional steroid injections to achieve the best outcome. Generally speaking, multiple treatment cycles are needed, at roughly 3 wks apart.
