Scar Treatment: Effective Solutions for Smooth, Clear Skin
Scars are the natural result of the skin’s healing process after injury, surgery, acne, or inflammation. While they are a normal part of recovery, many people seek scar treatments to improve their appearance and regain smoother, more even-toned skin.
At Skin Joy Clinic, led by Dr. Ismat Ara Khan, we offer personalized scar treatments that target various types of scars with safe, effective, and clinically proven techniques.
Types of Scars
Understanding the type of scar is key to choosing the right treatment. Common types include:
- Atrophic Scars: Depressed scars often caused by acne or chickenpox.
- Hypertrophic Scars: Raised, thickened scars that stay within the boundary of the original wound.
- Keloid Scars: Overgrown scar tissue that extends beyond the wound site.
- Contracture Scars: Scars that tighten the skin, often from burns.
- Post-Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation (PIH): Darkened patches following acne or injury (not a true scar, but often treated similarly).
Advanced Scar Treatment Options
Depending on the type and severity of your scar, our clinic may recommend one or more of the following:
1. Microneedling / Dermaroller
Stimulates collagen production to reduce the appearance of atrophic and acne scars.
2. Chemical Peels
Removes damaged skin layers and improves skin tone and texture for PIH and superficial scars.
3. Laser Scar Removal
Uses fractional CO2 or erbium lasers to smooth scar tissue and promote skin regeneration.
4. Steroid Injections
Ideal for treating raised keloid and hypertrophic scars by flattening the scar tissue over time.
5. Subcision
A minor surgical technique used to break the fibrotic bands under atrophic scars.
6. Fillers for Acne Scars
Injectable fillers like hyaluronic acid can temporarily fill deep acne scars for a smoother appearance.
7. PRP Therapy
Platelet-rich plasma stimulates natural healing and collagen remodeling to improve scar texture.
