What Is Scar Tissue Removal?
Scar tissue removal is not just about making scars disappear — it’s about restoring the skin’s texture, tone, and flexibility. Depending on the type of scar, we target both the surface and deep tissue layers, encouraging natural regeneration with minimal discomfort or downtime.
We treat:
- Acne scars (rolling, boxcar, or icepick)
- Surgical scars
- Injury or trauma-related scars
- Stretch marks
- Burn scars
- Keloid and hypertrophic scars (in selected cases)
Ideal Candidates for Scar Treatment
You may be a candidate if you:
- Have textured or discolored scars from acne, surgery, or injury
- Are concerned about uneven skin tone or depressed areas
- Want a non-surgical approach to improve skin smoothness
- Are in good overall health and free of active infections in the area
- Have realistic expectations and want gradual, natural improvement
We treat patients of all genders and skin tones, customizing treatment plans based on scar type, depth, and location.
How We Treat Scar Tissue
Scar tissue is unique to each person, so we offer a multi-technology approach tailored to your needs. Dr. Hamidi will design a treatment protocol using one or more of the following:
Laser Skin Resurfacing
Fractional erbium laser treatments using Fotona can precisely target scarred tissue, stimulate collagen, and improve surface texture and color.

Microneedling with Exosomes or PRP
Controlled micro-injury paired with regenerative serums helps smooth out scars, especially for acne scarring and stretch marks.

Subcision
For deeper or tethered scars, subcision may be used to manually release fibrous bands and allow the skin to elevate.
Skin Tightening (RF Therapy)
Radiofrequency-based skin tightening can help reduce the appearance of scars while improving overall skin tone and firmness.
What to Expect
Treatment Time:
30 to 60 minutes depending on the area and treatment selected
Downtime:
Varies by procedure. Light redness may last 1–3 days. Deeper laser treatments may require a few days of social downtime.
Results:
Improvement is gradual, with best results typically seen in a series of 3–6 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart.
Long-Term Benefits:
As collagen rebuilds over time, skin continues to smooth and even out. Some scars may become nearly undetectable.
