What is smallpox?

Smallpox is a devastating contagious disease caused by the variola virus, a member of the orthopoxvirus family. The word smallpox is derived from the Latin word “spurius” which means “spotted” or “pockmarked”. The distinct rash and raised bumps formed over the skin which later converted into fluid-filled pustules. Over 20 to 30 percent is the mortality rate because of smallpox. However, survivors survived with severe scarring which demanded to be treated on time.

Erbium YAG Laser is used to treat Smallpox scars efficiently. Before the start of the procedure, skin is properly cleansed and then anesthesia is given to reduce discomfort during treatment. This laser releases a wavelength well-absorbed by water, making it effective for precise skin ablation and collagen stimulation. Prof. Dr. Ikram Ullah Khan gives tailored Erbium YAG laser treatments according to each patient's concerns.

Controlled Treatment

Erbium YAG Laser is known for its precision and controlled removal of damaged skin layers. This is an effective treatment against sun damage, fine lines, wrinkles, etc.

Minimal Downtime

Erbium YAG Laser has minimal downtime as compared to other ablative lasers. During the initial recovery phase, the patient experiences redness, swelling, and peeling.

No Heat Transfer

Erbium YAG laser transfers less amount of heat to the surrounding tissues. This results in reducing the risk of complications and increases the chances of healing.

Stimulation of Collagen

Erbium YAG laser is extremely important in collagen stimulation. Collagen is an important protein that provides firmness to the skin and improves the texture of the skin.

Targeted Treatment

Depending on the goals of each patient, an Erbium YAG Laser is important to treat specific areas of the skin or the entire face. The laser can be adjusted for different levels of skin penetration.
