What are the costs of treatment for getting rid of chicken pox scars?

Doctor's Answer

Depressed chicken pox scars are due to the defect in collagen during the healing process and the formation of scar bands tethering the scar resulting in more obvious scar defect.

Treatment options available:

1) Scar subcision together with Rejuran S. Subcision releases and frees the scar bands from tethering the skin and allows the scar to lift partially.

The further injection of Rejuran S into the scar area while performing subcision allows the the scar area to heal and lift more effectively as collagen formation occurs in the treated area.

Rejuran S is a Korean Acne Scar booster which is Korean-FDA approved, Europe CE-approved and also Singapore HSA-approved. It is Korean technology targeting treatment of depressed acne scars. It contains high concentration of salmon Polynucleotide, DNA extracts in a viscous and dense consistency.

This gel-like consistency allows immediate filling and lifting of depressed scars; while the rich concentrate of Polynucleotide, DNA and RNA stimulates and accelerates collagen regeneration and remodelling in the scar areas through activation of the fibroblast and collagen cells. This achieves sustained lifting of the scars and long-term improvement in the appearance of the scars.

Depending on the depth and location of the scar, two or more treatments may be required. Treatment starts from $550 per treatment session.

2) Subcision together with a cross-linked hyaluronic acid filler. Subcision and injection of a filler is able to lift the depressed area instantly. However, as hyaluronic acid fillers are resorbed by the body with time, the scar area will sink again after 6-9 months and you will need to repeat the procedure. Treatment starts from $800 per treatment.
