Scar Reduction Procedures
Scar treatments vary depending on the scar type, location, and skin tone. At SurgiDerma, we offer the following professional treatment options for scar reduction:
1. Chemical Peels for Scars
Chemical peeling involves applying specially formulated acids to exfoliate the top layers of skin, helping to improve the skin tone and texture. It can be effective for superficial acne scars and discoloration.
2. Microneedling / Dermaroller
Microneedling is a minimally invasive treatment that uses tiny needles to create micro-injuries in the skin, stimulating collagen and elastin production. This technique is especially beneficial for atrophic acne scars and helps improve skin texture and firmness over time.
3. Laser Treatment for Scar Removal
Laser therapies use focused light energy to target the scarred tissue. Fractional CO2 laser, Er:YAG, or Pulsed Dye Laser are commonly used to reduce redness, improve surface irregularities, and stimulate new skin formation.
4. Dermal Fillers for Indented Scars
For depressed scars, especially acne-related ones, dermal fillers may be used to “fill in” the sunken area temporarily, providing an even skin surface.
5. Surgical Scar Revision (for deep or large scars)
In cases where scars are significantly raised, indented, or cause restricted movement, minor surgical procedures like scar excision or punch grafting may be recommended. This is often combined with other aesthetic treatments to achieve optimal outcomes.
Preparing for Scar Reduction Treatment
Scar treatments are personalized to the patient's skin condition and desired outcome. The dermatologist will analyze the skin’s texture, depth of the scar, pigmentation, and history of scar formation before recommending a treatment plan.
It is important to:
-
Share your medical history, current medications, and prior treatments
-
Avoid sun exposure and certain skincare products before the procedure
-
Follow pre-treatment instructions for better results and faster healing
