Popis: BACKGROUND Hybrid fractional laser skin resurfacing is a procedure that combines fractional nonablative and ablative wavelengths to improve photoaging. The postoperative period involves overt skin swelling, redness, and roughness. OBJECTIVE A single-center, randomized trial was performed to compare the effect of a standard Skincare regimen, with and without an anhydrous gel with TriHex peptides (a proprietary tripeptide and hexapeptide blend), on recovery after hybrid laser resurfacing of the face. METHODS Five subjects were assigned to a split-face protocol. Use of the skin regimen began approximately 2 weeks before the hybrid laser resurfacing and ended 7 days after. Subjects were evaluated by a physician for postprocedural healing. Additionally, the subjects were photographed and completed surveys to assess postprocedural healing and overall preference for Skincare regimen. RESULTS Based on physician assessment, mean redness on postoperative days 1 and 4 and mean roughness on the postoperative days 3 and 4 were significantly (P
