Scars

What Are Scars?

Scars are areas of fibrous tissue that form as the skin heals from an injury, wound, surgery, or inflammation. They can vary in size, shape, and texture, often leaving a noticeable mark on the skin. Scars may be raised, sunken, or discolored, and while they are a natural part of the healing process, many individuals seek treatment to improve their appearance. Scarring can occur on any part of the body and often affects self-esteem or confidence.

What Causes Scars?

  • Injuries and Trauma: Cuts, scrapes, burns, or any physical trauma that breaks the skin can result in scar formation as the body repairs itself.
  • Surgery: Surgical procedures often leave scars, especially if stitches are used to close the wound.
  • Acne: Severe acne can lead to scarring, particularly cystic acne, which causes deeper skin damage.
  • Inflammatory Skin Conditions: Conditions such as psoriasis or eczema that cause long-term skin inflammation can also lead to scars.
  • Genetics: Some individuals are more prone to developing scars due to their genetic makeup, particularly hypertrophic or keloid scars.

Microneedling
This innovative treatment involves creating controlled micro-injuries in the skin, which encourages the body’s natural healing response and stimulates collagen and elastin production. Over time, this process improves the appearance of scars, leading to smoother and more resilient skin.
