Scar Treatment
Your skin may be the first thing people notice about you. Healthy skin indicates a balanced and active lifestyle, which keeps you looking young. Protecting your skin is an essential priority to maintaining your appearance and feeling confident.
However, even cautious and proactive people can sustain injuries or damage, resulting in lasting scars. Fortunately, scar removal treatments can cover and even eliminate scarring to revitalize your glowing, smooth skin.

What Is Scarring and How Does It Occur?
Scar tissue grows after a previous injury heals. The size, shape and color can vary depending on the injury’s cause and severity. While many scars are small surface scars that fade over time, more severe injuries can cause large, deep marks that remain on the skin for years.
There are many common causes of scars on the face and rest of the body, including:
- Surgery
- Severe acne
- Burns
- Accidents or sports injuries
- Some illnesses or diseases
Deep Scarring Treatments
Modern treatments can restore your skin and confidence. If a scar is causing you physical or emotional discomfort, consider seeking professional guidance to have the mark removed.
SPRSI offers the following deep scarring treatments to revive your skin:
- Scar camouflage: During this treatment, the doctor infuses your scar tissue with skin-toned pigment to blend your scar with the skin around it, making it barely perceptible.
- Dermabrasion: Your provider will rub off the top layer of skin cells to stimulate new growth and reduce the appearance of scar tissue.
- Laser surgery: This surgery achieves the same results as dermabrasion by removing skin cells with a laser, leaving healthy cells untouched.
- Fillers: We inject a natural or synthesized substance into the scar, filling in the depression and giving you smoother skin.
- Microneedling: Our microneedling treatment stimulates collagen production to improve your skin’s appearance. This process can cover surface scars or act as a finishing treatment for deep scars.
