Scar Treatment

What is Scar Treatment?

Scar treatment is a set of methods used to lighten or completely eliminate scars following injuries to the surface of the skin. Scars are the result of tissue damage on the surface of the skin, and the depth, width and location of this damage determines the shape and size of the scar.

Scar treatment methods include laser treatment, microdermabrasion, chemical peels, dermaroller, surgical techniques, fillers, silicone gels or adhesives, steroid injections and PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) treatment. The methods may vary depending on the type and size of the scar.

Scar treatment is used to reduce or correct the size, color and shape of the scar. Most of the time, scars are treated for aesthetic concerns, but in some cases, problems such as restricted mobility or pain may also occur due to scarring. Therefore, scar treatment can be done depending on personal preference or health problems.
