How Scar Treatments Work

Scar treatments stimulate the skin’s natural healing and collagen remodeling processes to improve texture, reduce discoloration, and soften scar tissue. Depending on the type and severity of the scar, treatment may involve laser therapy, microneedling, or other advanced dermatologic procedures.
