Some of the Cosmetic Scar Removal Cosmetic Procedures are:
- Laser Scar Removal
- Dermabrasion
- Microdermabrasion
- Punch Excision & Skin-grafting
- Dermal Fillers
- Chemical Peels
Any of these methods can be used for scar removaldepending upon the type and extent of scarring.
Laser Scar Removal is a quick and safe way to reduce scars.Laser Scar Removal Utilizes lasers like CO2 and Er:YAG to evaporate outer scar tissue and stimulate new tissue growth, ideal for difficult-to-remove scars like acne scars.
Dermabrasion is just like polishing the skin by erosion of the rough and thick scar tissue. This is a good method to treat old scars and keloid formations. By this method an abrasion tool is used to mechanically resurface the skin and make it smooth. This is a very effective method especially when used in conjunction with other scar removal methods.
Microdermabrasion is the more advanced also the more popular dermabrasion since it acts on the topmost layer of the scar and abrades it. Lighter scars that are not deeply rooted in the skin are removed by this method. Microdermabrasion smoothens the scar and is effective in reducing the pigmentation that is caused by the scar.
Punch Excision & Skin-grafting is useful in removing deeper scars. This is a cosmetic micro-surgical method which combines cutting the edge and top of the scar, the mini wound is stitched and then skin is grafted over the scar.
Dermal Fillers Reduce deep pits caused by scars, such as acne or pock marks, using collagen and hyaluronic acid derivatives.
Chemical Peels Resurface scarred skin using chemical applications .
