Pigmentation Issues
FAQ
How do laser treatment help pigmented and textured scars?
Laser treatments are commonly used to treat both pigmented and textured scarring. Laser treatments can accelerate the skin cell turnover cycle to correct the appearance of dark spots and increase collagen production. Laser treatments are ideal if you have different types of scars, but are usually most appropriate for superficial pigmented scars that cause redness. Treatments like Laser Genesis can be especially helpful for scarring.
Do prescription creams help with pigmented scars?
Certain prescription creams can lessen the appearance of pigmented scars. Dark spots and hyperpigmentation can be corrected with topical creams that increase cellular turnover and brighten the complexion. Prescription creams can also help manage acne.
How do RF microneedling help with textured and pigmented scarring?
RF microneedling is a popular treatment that combines radiofrequency with microneedling to address complex scars and is appropriate for both textured and pigmented scarring. At our clinic, we typically used RF microneedling to treat indented scars, rolling scars, or other scars that cause deep skin texture issues. The thermal energy of radiofrequency combined with the collagen restructuring of microneedling can be a solution for even the most severe acne scarring
