Collagen Induction Therapy (CIT) Vs. Fraxel Laser for Acne Scars?

February 2, 2009
Asked By:TiredOfLunarSurace in San Diego, CA

Collagen Induction Therapy (CIT) and Fraxel Laser treatments seem to work in a similar manner: they create micro injuries to the skin to stimulate collagen production. Is this correct? It would seem CIT would be the preferred treatment because it does not destroy cells like the Fraxel treatment. I'm interested in knowing CIT effects on acne scars, which I assume are mostly localized collagen loss? Please comment on these assumptions.
