Scars origin

A scar is commonly referred to as a linear scar from a healed wound.

Scars are a natural effect of the skin’s healing process. These seals form in the connective tissue after wounds and damage to the skin. Since they are composed of collagen, they are less durable than the tissues they are replacing.

Sometimes they cause not only physical but also psychological discomfort. Sweat glands are not restored in scars and hair follicles are absent, therefore, scar removal procedures have their own characteristics.

Types of scars

Removal of scars with a laser in our clinic, regardless of their type, age and size, is carried out with minimal discomfort and the risk of complications.

Scars are divided into three main groups:\

• A scar located below the level of the epidermis. The color varies from white to pink and blue.
• A scar that is flush with the skin. Usually doesn’t cause discomfort, rarely itching and burning.
• Hypertrophic / keloid. A scar protruding above the surface of the skin, which has a different color. More often brown, purple or pink. The most difficult type of scar to treat.

Methods and technologies for scar correction

• laser treatment
• nanofraction microneedle treatment
• surgical treatment and cryodestruction
• injection treatment

Procedure steps

• Consultation with a specialist. Determination of the type of scar, its age, condition, as well as the patient’s history is collected to identify possible contraindications.
• Individual treatment plan. The doctor determines the possibility of combining it with other procedures, such as photorejuvenation or plasmolifting.
• Application of anesthetic cream if necessary.

Scar Correction Equipment

Laser scar removal is a technology that allows you to carry out a laser resurfacing procedure with the shortest rehabilitation period.

We use the most innovative equipment for the effective correction of scars.

• Powerful and efficient “Adonyss” CO2 (for the correction of difficult scars)
• Ultra-thin and delicate “Coolaser” CO2 (for areas requiring a careful and accurate approach without losing the result)
• Venus Versa device with Viva attachment (used as microneedle RF, affecting all layers of the dermis.)
• Surgical excision (used in rare cases when the size and type of scar doesn’t allow the use of sparing technologies). After excision of the scar and its healing, we carry out a course of laser treatment, which shows high efficiency.

What course of procedures is required?

The number of sessions is individual for each patient. The length of the course depends on many factors.

Depending on the complexity and type of scar, from 2 to 6 or more procedures can be prescribed. They are carried out with a break, which will be determined by your doctor.
