Scar Removal Treatments
Scar Removal Treatments
Scars are a natural part of the healing process. However, unsightly scars can leave you feeling self-conscious about your appearance. At Primaqdonna clinic, we can help you explore your scar removal options and recommend the best treatment to reduce the appearance of these marks.
Fractional CO2 Laser
The Fractional CO2 Laser is a state-of-the-art, noninvasive skin rejuvenation treatment that provides beautiful results with minimal downtime or discomfort. The fractional laser is so named because it treats only a fraction of the skin in the treatment area. This means healthy skin in the treatment area can help speed up the healing process.
The fractional laser is safe and effective for all skin types and is particularly effective for treating acne scars, surgical scars, and burn scars. This device can also resurface the skin for the treatment of wrinkles and sun damage.
The Fractional CO2 Laser works by penetrating the deeper layers of the skin with pixelated shafts of focused light. The skin reacts by producing new healthy collagen that smooths out existing scars. You may see some immediate results, but final results will appear as your skin heals.
PDL treatment
The pulsed dye laser (PDL) can improve scar texture and color. The PDL uses a concentrated beam of safe yellow light to target blood vessels in the skin. The light heats the targeted blood vessels and eliminates them while leaving the surrounding skin undamaged.
PDL treatment is safe and effective. A session can be completed in a few minutes without anesthesia. This approach is appropriate for most scar types, including hypertrophic. Depending on the scar, you may need several treatments for the best results.
Bellafill For Atrophic Scars
Bellafill is a revolutionary dermal filler that provides results that can last up to five years. For acne scars and other depressed scars, Bellafill helps lift the affected tissue and align it with your skin level. Unlike other dermal fillers made from hyaluronic acid, Bellafill restores the skin rather than simply dissolving over time.
Bellafill’s polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) microspheres are suspended in a collagen gel for injection. Once injected, the PMMA microspheres form a unique support structure that your natural collagen can build on. As Bellafill dissolves, it leaves your skin with a strong collagen foundation to retain its improved appearance.
RF Microneedling
Microneedling is suitable for all skin types and is one of the safest treatments available today. When it comes to treating scars, microneedling treatments that incorporate radio frequency therapy are particularly effective.
The tiny injuries created during microneedling do not damage the outer layer of skin, but they do trigger your skin’s natural collagen production response. This process is accelerated by the warmth provided by radiofrequency energy. This combination reduces the appearance of scars by allowing your skin to tap into its natural healing process.
You may experience some skin redness for a few hours following your microneedling treatment. You should begin to see a reduction in the visibility of your scar that will improve over time. Multiple sessions generally offer the most significant improvement.
Steroid Injections For Keloid Scars
Steroid injections are often a great solution for people suffering from keloid scars. Steroids help “turn off” the fibroblasts that are causing growth while encouraging your skin to remodel the scar tissue.
