Laser Scar Removal
The Laser Scar Removal procedure reduces scars with focused laser light that resurfaces the skin. This procedure delivers concentrated pulses of laser energy to the scar tissue, breaking it down and stimulating new skin growth. The laser energy promotes collagen remodeling, which helps smooth and flatten the scar, improving its color and texture and color. Laser scar removal can effectively treat various types of scars, including acne, surgical, injury, and stretch marks, on the face and all body parts.
Laser Scar Removal in Weehawken, NJ and Hoboken, NJ is suitable for individuals looking to improve the appearance of their scars without undergoing surgery. Although our offices do offer surgical scar removal, this treatment is ideal for those who have visible scars that affect their confidence and are seeking a minimally invasive solution. It is usually possible to see results after a few sessions, with significant improvements visible within weeks as the skin heals and regenerates. Additional treatment with steroid injections may be recommended to optimize results.
