Service Description

The process of removing a scar consists of 5 distinct phases. The first is color blending. When the scar is formed it may become darker than the surrounding skin due to an excess of melanocytes or pigment making cells. If the scar becomes pink, red or purple they contain excess vascularization. The scar may also be lighter than the surrounding skin. Depending on the color of your specific scar, a series of treatments will be customized to blend the color of the scar to match the surrounding skin. Collagen remodeling is the second phase of scar treatment. The converts the scarred collagen into new healthy collagen. The third phase involves shrinking the scar from all sides. Stimulation of new collagen production is the forth phase of treatment. New healthy collagen is stimulated to fill the scar. The fifth stage of scar treatment is resurfacing. This will blend the scar with the surrounding skin and smooth the surface of the scar.
