A Synergistic Approach to Remodeling of Photodamaegd Skin: Exploring Laser-Assisted Biostimulator Delivery

Photodamaged skin increases the risk of skin cancer, highlighting the need for preventive treatments. Laser-assisted drug delivery (LADD) using ablative fractional lasers (AFL) enhances topical drug delivery and has proven safe and effective. Integrating non-invasive optical imaging techniques with transcriptomic gene expression profiling enables evaluation of the response of different skin layers to such interventions.

It is hypothesized that AFL-assisted delivery of biostimulators exerts synergistic regenerative effects on photodamaged skin, resulting in superior clinical, molecular, and morphological improvements, as well as enhanced epidermal and dermal remodeling, compared with either monotherapy alone. The study aims to provide an in-depth understanding of the individual and combined effects of AFL and biostimulators on the regeneration of photodamaged skin through clinical assessments, non-invasive imaging, and transcriptomic analysis.
