As my colleagues have mentioned, several treatment options exist, and often several are required to target the different types of scars present on the face.
At the Aesthetic Studio, we particularly like the resurfacing achieved with the Picoplus picosecond laser that:
1. Resurfaces scars with minimal downtime
2. Achieves a subcision-like effect due to its mechanism of action on the dermis - it creates little bubbles of air at multiple levels to do this
3. Continues to rejuvenate the skin and minimise pore appearance over time
Where necessary additional treatments are used to manage trickier scars, and that is best advised while at consult.
Do remember that scar treatment is often a long drawn affair, with maximal results coming out 6 months to a year after your series of monthly treatments. Ultimately, scar resurfacing is for the better and you will enjoy the renewed skin for many years without the need to repeat the procedures.
Cheers!
Best,
