Scars
Scars are marks left on the skin after an injury, surgery, or acne, resulting from the healing process. They can vary in size, shape, and texture, and may be raised, indented, or discolored.
About
Although the skin is a dynamic organ capable of regenerating itself after injuries, some injuries cause the skin to heal with scarring. Scars can develop after inflammatory acne, infections, burns, inflammations, injections, surgeries, stretch marks, simple scratches, etc. Other times, they can form a raised scar or keloid as a result of too much scar tissue in the wound.
It is impossible to predict how well the skin will heal after any trauma, as genetics and concomitant health-related conditions play a significant role in regulating the healing process.
Scar treatment may encompass a variety of methods. Keloids and hypertrophic scars may be treated by a combination of injections, IPL, laser resurfacing treatment, and even Botox. There is not one specific treatment to treat all scars; instead, it is a step-wise approach.
Treatment Options
Platelet-Rich Plasma
CO2 Laser Treatment
CO2 laser treatment: Lasers and light treatments can remove excess redness, pink, and brown discoloration of the scar. CO2 laser resurfacing is typically reserved for moderate to severe acne scarring, traumatic scars, and burn scars.
Microneedling and PRP: Microneedling is particularly helpful for acne scarring in all skin types and, when combined with PRP, produces an even greater enhanced result by promoting cell regeneration.
