Scar Treatment

You have scars, burns, acne... The skin can sometimes endure numerous aggressions and traumas over the years. These aggressions leave red marks, some raised or indented. These scars can lead to complexes. Depending on the trauma experienced, the skin may take a long time to fully regenerate. Some skin types heal quickly, while others take longer to heal.

There are also several types of scars that will require different approaches to treatment:

– Atrophic (indented)
– Hypertrophic
– Keloid (raised)
– Hyperpigmented or hypopigmented

At the centre, we offer solutions.

WHICH LASERS?

The centre is equipped with 4 lasers to address various indications:

- The Erbium Yag Juliet laser, which allows for skin resurfacing and thus diminishes scars with its wavelength of 2940 nm.
- The Vbeam pulsed dye laser for treating red scars.
- The Revlite Qswitch for small scars.
- The Morpheus, fractional radiofrequency mainly for acne scars and recent stretch marks.
- The Aerolase Laser, which addresses the pigmentary, vascular, and tensile aspects of the skin.

All of these lasers facilitate a progressive improvement in the appearance of the skin.

HOW MANY SESSIONS?

Treatment may require several sessions.

Sessions are spaced 1 to 2 months apart. A complete avoidance of sun exposure is necessary to prevent rebound pigmentation.

With this extensive range of lasers, we can treat almost all types of scars. Depending on the desired outcome, these scars may require treatment with varying intensities. Therefore, in cases of higher power settings, the aftereffects may necessitate a more or less significant social withdrawal.
Of course, all of this will be decided in collaboration with the patient.

It is also important to understand (as we aim not to sell dreams at the centre) that the improvement of the scar also largely depends on your skin's ability to heal. 

WHO PERFORMS THESE SESSIONS?

Laser sessions are conducted exclusively by doctors specialised in laser treatments.

IS IT PAINFUL?

In the vast majority of cases, the treatment will be almost painless. If we are anticipating a deeper treatment, the doctor will prescribe a healing cream.

Patient Marion's opinion: 

“ My experience with laser treatment for acne scars ”

For several years, I have suffered from acne scars on my face. I developed a pathological complex about them. This led to numerous sessions with a psychologist, as I was so ashamed to show myself in public. I could no longer put on makeup. My skin seemed coarse and dirty to me. 

And even though my boyfriend, family, and friends never commented on it, I could no longer look at myself in the mirror.  I was the only one who could see them. It’s true that when you have a complex, that’s all you can see.

I took the plunge, and I am extremely pleased with the result, as in just 2 weeks, my scars have diminished (...).”

IMPORTANT TO KNOW:

It is very important to understand that the success of scar removal will largely depend on your skin's ability to respond to the treatment.

We have a state-of-the-art technical platform, and we will do our utmost to satisfy you!
