Best Treatments for Scars

Scars—whether from acne, injury, or surgery—can be a lasting reminder of trauma or inflammation. They may appear raised, indented, discolored, or textured, and often impact self-confidence. At Skin Care Institute, we use proven, non-surgical treatments to smooth, fade, and regenerate scarred skin for a more even and refined appearance.

Fade the Past With Proven Scar-Smoothing Solutions

We offer a combination of microneedling with PRP, laser skin resurfacing, and targeted skincare to reduce the appearance of scars over time. Each plan is customized to the scar type, location, and skin sensitivity.

What to Expect from Your Scar Treatments

Weeks 1–2

We begin with a skin assessment to determine scar type—atrophic, hypertrophic, or post-inflammatory. Initial treatment may include SkinPen Microneedling or a mild laser session to stimulate collagen remodeling in the affected area.

✓ Stimulated skin regeneration
✓ Reduced discoloration or redness
✓ Treatment plan personalized to scar type

Weeks 3–5

PRP is added to microneedling to enhance cellular repair and healing. For deeper or textured scars, fractional laser treatments like Fraxel or ResurFX may be incorporated for more dramatic resurfacing.

✓ Visible improvement in scar depth and texture
✓ Smoother, more even skin tone
✓ Accelerated tissue healing and renewal

Weeks 6–8

Ongoing treatments continue to refine and rebuild the skin’s surface. Clear + Brilliant® or additional microneedling sessions may be layered in to reach optimal texture and pigmentation correction.

✓ Enhanced skin smoothness and elasticity
✓ Diminished scar visibility in size and shape
✓ Improved confidence in bare skin

Ongoing Maintenance (Every 3–6 Months)

To maintain and extend your results, we recommend maintenance treatments tailored to your skin’s response—along with home care products that prevent future scarring and support skin health.

✓ Long-term improvement in skin tone and clarity
✓ Reduced recurrence of post-inflammatory scars
✓ Reinforced skin strength and barrier protection
