Scars & Stretch Marks

When someone gets an injury they usually end up with a scar to the dermis. Proper management of scars is crucial to the recovery of patient well-being, since unattractive results can in the end have adverse effects on social life and self-esteem. With the advancement in laser technologies, like resurfacing and microdermabrasion, new solutions have since been developed to permanently erase or minimize aesthetic issues caused by scar formation.

Laser treatments are used on dermis scarring for multiple reasons. They can prevent a raised scar from forming after surgery, reduce scar pain and itching, and increase your range of motion if your scar limits movement. Laser treatments can also make your scar less noticeable, however it will not get rid of the scar completely.
