Hello,
Yes, fractional CO2 laser treatment may used for grafted scar tissue. It may be given in sittings.
But how it is useful and how many episodes are required by your dermatologist.
Please consult your dermatologist he will examine and treat you accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
