SCAR treatment

Treatment of scars in NYC is a complex process and is highly dependent on each scar’s unique characteristics. Many scars call for a combination of treatments. For scars that are large, highly visible, or deep, it is best to consult with a dermatologist at PFRANKMD to find out which treatment or combination of treatments is recommended.

What Are Scars?

A scar is a growth of tissue marking the spot where skin has healed after an injury. Scars are part of the natural healing process after an injury. Scars are categorized into various types depending on factors like their cause, location, depth, and size. The following types of scars can occur:

Acne Scars
Pitted Scars
Burns
Surgical Scars
C-Section Scars
Stretch Marks
Wound Scars
Keloid Scars
Hypertrophic Scars

Acne scars may be pitted, wavelike, or angular, while hypertrophic scars appear raised and red. Keloid scars are also raised and extend beyond the injury, while contracture scars appear tight as if pulled together around the edges.

Laser Therapy for Scars

Our Scar Treatment Options

Scars can be treated and improved in a variety of ways. Sometimes, a combination of therapies can be used to treat scars. We perform the following treatments:

Cortisone or Kenalog Treatments – Cortisone or Kenalog steroid injections can treat keloid scars and hypertrophic scars.

Excimer UVB Laser – This phototherapy treatment is ideal for white scars.

Vbeam – This pulsed-dye laser effectively treats red scars.

PICO Laser – PICO laser treatment uses laser energy to address hyperpigmented scars.

Microdroplet Silicone – Injections of microdroplets of silicone can be used to fill in indented scars. This process also stimulates collagen production in the area.

Fraxel Repair – This ablative fractional laser treatment vaporizes scar tissue in hypertrophic scars and acne scars, stimulating the body’s natural healing process.

Fraxel Restore  – Fraxel Restore’s non-ablative fractional laser energy encourages new collagen production. This gradually and naturally fills in acne scars.

Ellacor – Ellacor uses hollow needles to remove tissue sections from acne scars. As a result, the body’s healing process fills in these scars.

The number of treatments and treatment sessions required is determined by the severity of the scar.

Vbeam Laser to Reduce Redness

Ideal Candidates for Scar Treatment

If you have scars that are situated in visible areas such as your hand or face, you may be a good candidate for scar treatment. If you have recently undergone surgery, you may be eligible for these techniques to prevent the development of keloid or hypertrophic scars. You may also be recommended for treatment if your scar limits your ability to move certain parts of your body.

Both surgical and nonsurgical scars should be treated sooner rather than later. The longer a scar stays red and inflamed, the worse it will look in the end. That’s why it’s essential to treat scars early.

Your Consultation

An examination of your scar or scars will be performed during your consultation. We will assess the type of the scar, as well as its depth and severity, and we will ask about its cause. A review of your medical history will be conducted; you will be asked about past surgeries, current medications, and existing conditions. Finally, a treatment plan will be developed using a combination of scar-revision treatments.

After Your Scar Treatment

After your scar treatment, you likely won’t require any downtime or recovery time. Non-invasive and minimally invasive techniques allow for quicker healing than surgical treatments. Temporary swelling, redness, or bruising may be experienced. You will be given specific aftercare instructions depending on the chosen treatments.

Cost of Treatment for Scars

The cost of scar removal varies from one patient to another due to the personalized approach applied for each individual. The overall price may be impacted by the number and size of the scars being treated. The expenses will also reflect the complexity of the procedure and number of total sessions needed.

If you’re ready to learn more about the treatment methods we use to reduce the appearance of scars, we invite you to Contact PFRANKMD to schedule a consultation at our 5th Avenue or West Village location in NYC.

Written by: Rachel Lapidos @rachel_lapidos for Bustle

Since I’m what the youth would call middle-aged in my mid-30s and gravity is starting to really do a number on me, I’ve been looking into more drastic measures beyond my current routine of Botox, filler, and collagen-stimulating creams.

Miria is a new non-ablative treatment (ablative lasers remove the top layer of the skin, while non-ablative lasers do not). This non-invasive laser penetrates deep beneath the skin’s surface to tighten, diminish fine lines, and help reduce acne scars and sun damage — all with only four to seven days of downtime. Unlike traditional ablative resurfacing procedures, it can be performed with topical anesthesia and requires little downtime.

As someone who’s never tried a “serious” laser treatment before — besides Clear & Brilliant, an entry-level laser that doesn’t penetrate as deeply as Miria (and because it doesn’t go as deep, you need multiple sessions for the best results) — I was intrigued. Since I’ve tried so many products and treatments in the name of more youthful skin, I figured it was time to give something more serious a go — something that really gets to the source of collagen production to get it stimulated. Read on for everything you need to know about the Miria laser, including what it’s done for my complexion almost two months later.

Dr. Connie Yang discusses the challenges of treating atrophic acne scars and why the Miria Laser stands out as a game-changer. By delivering precise energy to the dermis, the Miria stimulates collagen production while minimizing trauma to the skin’s surface. This innovative approach makes it particularly effective for patients prone to hyperpigmentation, as it allows for safe, high-energy treatments on all skin types, including darker tones.

The non-ablative nature of the Miria Laser means minimal downtime, making it an excellent choice for those seeking results without disrupting their routine. Over the course of a few months, as collagen rebuilds, patients see smoother, more even skin texture. Click the link in bio to schedule a consultation!

Here is what you can do after a facelift procedure to minimize the look of the scars and maximize the healing time.
The Vbeam is a pulse-dyed laser that can be used to improve the look and feel of the scars as well as shorten the length of healing time.

For individuals who are prone to keloids, we can combine the Vbeam treatment with cortisone injections to soften the built-up scar tissue, as seen in this patient.

Treatments are performed monthly until resolved.

It is essential to begin scar treatment as soon as possible, otherwise the healing process will be more difficult and prolonged.

Watch till the end to see the results after five treatments.

When considering laser treatments for scars following various surgical procedures like facelifts, liposuction, and breast augmentation, it’s important to understand the timing for initiation. Patients can start laser treatments as early as 2 to 6 weeks post-surgery.

This timing is contingent upon several factors, including the complete closure of the surgical wound and the removal of stitches. Once these conditions are met, laser therapy can be beneficial in minimizing the appearance of scars and enhancing the overall healing process. Early intervention with laser treatments can promote skin regeneration and reduce the risk of abnormal scarring, leading to improved aesthetic outcomes. It’s essential to consult with a qualified dermatologist or plastic surgeon to tailor a post-operative care plan that includes the appropriate timing and type of laser treatment based on individual healing and skin types.

Schedule a consultation to determine if your scars can be improved with scar therapy treatments.

@drgabrielasoza discusses various strategies for addressing the appearance of cesarean section scars following childbirth. After delivering her baby, she considers multiple treatment options tailored to each patient’s unique needs and skin types. Among the effective treatments are:

1. **Laser Therapy**: This includes advanced technologies such as Fraxel and Miria lasers, which target scar tissue at a cellular level to promote skin regeneration and improve texture and tone.

2. **Botox Injections**: These can be utilized to reduce tension on the scar tissue, preventing it from becoming raised and helping achieve a smoother appearance.

3. **Cortisone Injections**: Administered directly into the scar, these injections can reduce inflammation and diminish redness, ultimately leading to a flatter and less noticeable scar.

4. **Silicone Tape**: This non-invasive method involves applying silicone sheets or tape over the scar to hydrate and protect it, which has been clinically shown to improve scar appearance over time.

Dr. Soza also emphasizes the practice of scar massage. By gently massaging the scar tissue, patients can enhance blood circulation, soften the area, and promote flattening of the scar. This technique is an important aspect of the overall treatment plan.

As a dedicated cosmetic dermatologist, Dr. Soza is committed to developing personalized treatment plans that take into account individual skin characteristics and patient preferences, ensuring the best possible outcomes in scar management and aesthetic improvements.

FAQs

I have a scar from a facelift. Are there treatments for this?

Absolutely. You’re investing so much time and money into your facial surgery. You should absolutely have a laser surgeon look at your scars starting at about 4 weeks after your procedure. There are many treatments available.

Will VBeam help a C-section scar?

C-section scars can be treated with the Vbeam at 2-4 weeks. We sometimes utilize Pico lasers, which can be used while breastfeeding.

Does the VBeam treat all kinds of scars?

Vbeam is the most commonly used laser for red and raised scars and is typically a first-line therapy for early intervention.

What is the hardest type of scar to remove?

The older the scar, the harder it is to remove. It is very difficult to treat old deep box scars and deep textural scars with pits. We can make an improvement by using specific PFRANKMD protocols.

For a thick burn scar what’s the best laser treatment?

A thick burn scar is definitely going to take a combination of treatments. A combination of cortizon or kenalog treatments in conjunction with V Beam may be the best course of action. Once it gets flat you can do other types of resurfacing treatments.

Can you fix a thin white flat scar to make it a pigmented skin color?

Yes, you can fix a thin white scar; however, unless I really think I can make at least a 50-60% improvement with technologies, I would suggest cosmetic tattooing, which also provide.

How many scar treatments does it take to see results?

The number of treatments always depends on the type of scar and what’s being used. I’ve never seen a scar that was really one and done.

What kind of scars can be treated?

Every type of scar can be treated. It’s rare that I can’t find a solution or protocol to make improvements.

How long before I can return to normal activity after the scar removal treatment?

There should be no downtime that interferes with daily activities. The majority of people could exercise, go about their daily lives, and wear makeup after their scar removal treatment.

How long should I wait before considering surgical scar removal?

You should avoid surgical revision unless the healing process went horribly wrong and you know the scar will be smaller than it was before. A skilled surgeon or laser surgeon should help make that decision.

What is the healing process for a scar treatment?

The healing process varies significantly based on the treatment used.

Which scar creams should I use?

In my experience, scar creams don’t really do much. Topical antibiotics can help with a wound until it’s healed over but for scars, I have not seen anything provide a difference. Silicone sheets can be helpful if a scar is raised.

PRP for scars?

You know how I feel about PRP, works great for hair and can be very helpful in wound healing. In terms of scars once the skin is healed and opposed, I’ve not found that much improvement from injecting PRP.

Botox for scars?

Injecting Botox in and around scars can be helpful, particularly on areas where there is muscle activity.

Should I be concerned, if I have a scar that’s itching and burning?

A scar that itches and burns may be cause for concern as it’s in what we call keloidal formation, and will continue grow. Treating these scars is in your best interest because they are in their growth phase.

Ablative vs. Non-ablative for Scars?

Ablative are laser treatments that require more downtime and used for surgical scars. When there’s irregularity, we want to do something significant for a scar, and ablative resurfacing can be performed. Non-ablative treatments require less down time. Multiple treatments are needed and can have equal to or more efficacy.
