Our Range of Scar Revision Treatments in NYC
Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) scar revision is a non-invasive treatment that targets pigmented scars, helping to reduce discoloration and restore a more even skin tone. By using light energy, IPL breaks down the darkened pigments in scarred tissue without damaging the surrounding skin.
This treatment works best for scars caused by acne, sun exposure, or minor injuries and is effective for reducing redness in surgical scars. With virtually no recovery time needed, IPL makes achieving smoother, healthier-looking skin both convenient and effortless.
FRAX Scar Revision
As a non-ablative, fractional laser system, FRAX creates precise micro-injuries in the scar tissue, stimulating natural collagen production encouraging the skin’s healing process and improving skin elasticity.
This treatment is particularly effective for acne scars, surgical scars, and other textural irregularities.
Subcision Scar Revision
Subcision targets depressed scars by using a fine needle to release scar tissue beneath the skin. This lifts the scar, promotes collagen production, and helps restore a smoother, more even texture.
This procedure works well for rolling and tethered scars resistant to topical treatments. Over time, collagen rebuilds, gradually improving skin texture and creating a more even complexion.
Types of Scars We Treat
Hypertrophic Scars
Hypertrophic scars are red, raised, and often extend beyond the original wound. Reducing their visibility involves a tailored scar revision approach designed to smooth and blend the scar with the surrounding skin.
Acne Scars
Acne scars range from recessed and pitted areas to boxcar and wavelike scars. We use advanced methods like subcision, lasers, and IPL to minimize their appearance and restore smooth skin.
Keloid Scars
Keloid scars are typically raised and obvious. These scars can be treated with IPL to remove darkened pigment and has been effective in reducing the height and redness of the scar.
Contracture Scars
These scars tighten the skin, often the result of a serious burn. Treating these scars is a customized treatment, and requires a full evaluation of the extent of the scar in treatment planning.
