Scars
Scars are complex and require an organized, comprehensive approach to treatment. There are many potential components to scars including changes in texture and colour. Texture changes include thick, thin and indented scars and colour changes vary with white, red and brown being most common. Stretch marks are examples of another type of scar which we commonly manage. Scars may also
be itchy or painful and these symptoms need to be addressed. The best time to treat a scar is within the first few weeks to months, however, old scars may be improved. At Cosmedica, we have multiple lasers and other forms of treatment to match the various types of scars; all of which are dermatologist directed. A full complement of technologies and a coordinated approach are essential for best results.
