Our approach improves texture and tone while promoting healing, allowing patients to feel more confident in their skin.
What Is Surgical Scar Removal?
Surgical scar removal involves a combination of techniques designed to reduce the visibility of scars resulting from surgery. Treatments may include laser therapy, microneedling, and other minimally invasive approaches to break down scar tissue, stimulate collagen, and restore skin smoothness. Each treatment plan is customized based on scar size, location, and type to deliver the most effective results.
How Surgical Scar Removal Works
Surgical scar removal works by targeting the damaged tissue beneath and around the scar. Laser energy or microneedling breaks down dense collagen fibers in the scar, encourages new collagen growth, and stimulates skin regeneration. Over time, this process softens and flattens the scar while improving skin texture and tone, helping the treated area blend seamlessly with the surrounding skin.
