People with Areas of Scarring From Injury

A scar is formed as part of the natural healing process after an injury. During the healing process, the white blood cells change the tissue texture and the cells present around the wound becomes more visible as a scar. The visibility of a scar depends on factors such as:

  • Size and depth of the wound
  • Location of the wound
  • Blood supply to the wound
  • Skin color, texture and thickness
  • Direction of the scar
  • Age
  • Medications

Types of scars formed after an injury

  1. Hypertrophic Scars: These scars are formed at the site of wound and appear elevated and rose from the skin. They are formed by the excessive tissue that develops over the wound.
  2. Keloid Scars: These scars are developed during a forceful healing phase. They appear as a clustered and dark thick scar due to excess secretion collagen in the wounded area
  3. Scar Contractures: Formed after suffering from burns. The skin is busted and tightened and may affect the function of the nerves and muscles.

Laser scar removal

Laser treatment is one of the safest and effective treatment methods to eradicate the visibility of scars from wounds. At Anew, an advanced aesthetic day care centre, we merge the safety of laser therapy with an efficacy of CO2 laser treatment with UltraPulse Encore fractionated CO2 laser. The FDA approved lumenis laser device produces CO2 laser beams which are absorbed by the water content present in the tissue at the wound site. The water is heated up until it reaches boiling point resulting in the evaporation of the water content from the affected tissue on the burn site. Surrounding tissues are also heated up during the process causing tissue coagulation and triggers thermal stimulation of deep skin layers. These, in turn, result in the production of new collagen in the spot.
