Post-Therapeutic Hypochromia after Fractional CO2 Laser treated with Bromisum Gaudchii trecul

Abstract

Ana Carolina Naves de Castro Rocha, Flávio Barbosa Luz and Marcia Ramos-e-Silva

Hypochromia secondary to the use of CO2 fractional laser, although common, is seldom reported in the medical literature, as well as how to proceed in such cases. We report a patient who was submitted to the procedure for treatment of diffuse atrophic striae in the lower limbs. She noted new lesions more evident than the original, as soon as the post-procedure crusts came off. She was treated with a progressive improvement after 3 months with oral therapy of Brosimum gaudichaudii Trécul, topical psoralen, and a not frequent sun exposure (UVA).
