Scars
How to Treat Them?

Overview

Scars, especially acne scars, are visible marks on the skin formed after an injury or inflammation. In the case of acne, these scars usually appear when outbreaks are severe or poorly manipulated. At our Aesthetic Center, we offer various treatments to improve the appearance of scars and restore a more uniform and healthy look to the skin.

Why do I have scars and how can they be eliminated?

• Acne scars: Occur when acne inflammation damages the tissue beneath the skin. Treatments such as chemical peels or Q-Switch laser are effective in improving the texture and tone of affected skin.
• Surgical or traumatic scars: These scars can be deeper and require procedures such as facial radiofrequency or the use of PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) to stimulate skin regeneration.

What type of treatments exist to improve scars?

At our Aesthetic Center, we offer a variety of scar treatments tailored to each patient according to scar type and severity. Among the most effective are:

• Chemical Peel: Ideal for superficial scars and improving skin texture.
• Q-Switch Laser: Effective for lightening scars and acne spots.
• Facial Radiofrequency with Accent Prime: Recommended for deeper scars by stimulating collagen production.
• PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma): Stimulates skin regeneration, improving its overall appearance.

Do scars worsen over time?

Scars do not worsen over time, but without proper treatment, they can become more noticeable. Treatments such as chemical peels and Q-Switch laser are key to improving the appearance of scars and preventing them from looking worse visually.

What types of scars are there?

• Atrophic scars: Usually appear after acne or chickenpox and are characterized by indentations in the skin.
• Hypertrophic scars: Present as thick, raised skin, generally after surgery or traumatic injury.
• Keloid scars: These scars are thick and extend beyond the original injury area, often requiring more specific treatments like radiofrequency.

What results can I expect with the treatments you offer?

Results will depend on scar type and treatment used. In general, you can expect significant improvement in skin texture, tone, and appearance. Treatments like Q-Switch laser and chemical peels offer visible results after several sessions. At our Aesthetic Center, we design a personalized plan for each patient to achieve the best possible results.
