Ablative and nonablative lasers have been used for the treatment of acne scars in recent years.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Aims<\/jats:title><jats:p>The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectivity of combined FCL and FmRF treatment for acne scars retrospectively.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>A total of 72 patients with acne scars who received FCL\u00a0+\u00a0FmRF treatment between 2014 and 2016 were included in this study. Photographs of patients before treatment and 1\u00a0month following the last treatment session were scored by two blinded researchers, according to the ECCA acne scar scoring method. Patients were contacted via telephone after 1\u00a0month following the last treatment and asked to evaluate their satisfaction with the treatment outcome using a 5\u2010point Likert\u2010type scale.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>A significant decrease was noted in ECCA scores after the treatment along with temporary side effects.

More remarkable improvement in ECCA scores during treatment seems to be associated with higher patient satisfaction and to be more likely in patients with darker skin types.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/jocd.13004","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,5,29]],"date-time":"2019-05-29T12:40:40Z","timestamp":1559133640000},"page":"115-121","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":26,"title":["Use
