considerations:

what to expect*

preparation

Before treatment, your provider will carefully evaluate your skin, discussing scar type, treatment options, and expected results. You’ll receive recommendations for a personalized plan based on your skin’s needs.

procedure

The treatment approach depends on the selected method:

  • Microneedling, Laser Therapy, and Chemical Peels: These treatments stimulate collagen production and resurface the skin to improve scarring.
  • Steroid Injections: For raised scars, such as keloids, steroid injections may be used to reduce thickness and flatten the tissue.
aftercare

After the procedure, you may experience mild redness, swelling, or sensitivity, depending on the treatment. Your provider will offer specific aftercare instructions, such as hydrating the skin, avoiding direct sun exposure, and using prescribed topicals to enhance healing.

next steps

Results appear gradually as skin rejuvenates and collagen production increases, with multiple sessions often needed for optimal improvement. Follow-up visits help track progress and adjust treatments as needed.

common scar reduction questions

FAQ
will scar reduction completely remove my scars?

While treatments significantly reduce visibility, complete removal is rare. The goal is to soften texture, minimize discoloration, and create smoother skin.

does scar reduction hurt?

Most treatments cause minimal discomfort, with options like numbing cream available for comfort. Pain levels depend on the treatment method.

does insurance cover scar reduction?

Most cosmetic scar treatments are not covered by insurance, but medical treatments for functional impairment may qualify.

how are scars reduced?

Scar treatments work by stimulating collagen, resurfacing skin, or reducing excess tissue. Methods vary based on scar type.

how long does a scar reduction procedure take?

Sessions range from 30 minutes to 1 hour, depending on the treatment.

is there aftercare required following scar reduction?

Yes, aftercare is important for scar reduction and varies based on the treatment. For most scars, this includes avoiding sun exposure, using recommended topical products, and following provider instructions for optimal healing. However, if treating a keloid, additional follow-up appointments may be necessary to help prevent regrowth.
