Small Scar Revision is a specialized laser treatment designed to reduce the appearance of minor scars, such as surgical scars, acne scars, and stretch marks. By combining ablative CO2 laser resurfacing with non-ablative 1570nm laser therapy, this treatment helps to smooth out scars, stimulate collagen production, and improve overall skin texture.
The CO2 laser removes the top layers of damaged skin, allowing fresh, healthy skin to regenerate. Meanwhile, the 1570nm laser penetrates deeper into the dermis, encouraging collagen remodeling without disrupting the surface layer. This dual approach fades scars over time, making them less visible while improving the surrounding skin’s overall tone and texture.
This treatment is ideal for individuals with minor scars, such as post-surgical scars, small burn scars, acne scars, or light stretch marks. If you have mild to moderate scarring and want an effective but non-invasive solution, this treatment can help you achieve smoother skin.
After the procedure, the treated area may appear slightly red and swollen for a few days, followed by mild peeling. Over the next few weeks, collagen production increases, and the scar gradually becomes less visible. Most patients see noticeable improvements within a few sessions, depending on the severity of the scar.
Large Scar Revision is a more intensive laser treatment designed to significantly reduce the appearance of deep scars, including burn scars, post-surgical scars, and extensive stretch marks. By using the CO2 laser for deep resurfacing and 1570nm laser for collagen remodeling, this treatment improves skin texture, reduces discoloration, and smooths out large or raised scars.
Individuals with large, raised, or deep scars from injuries, burns, surgeries, or pregnancy (stretch marks) can benefit from this treatment. It is especially useful for those who have thick, stiff, or discolored scars that impact their appearance or comfort.
The treated area may feel sensitive and appear red for several days, with mild swelling and peeling. Over the next few weeks, the scar gradually fades, softens, and becomes less visible. Multiple sessions may be required for larger or deeper scars, but patients often see remarkable improvement over time.
