Scar Tissue

Scar tissue can be a constant reminder of past injuries, surgeries, or skin conditions. For many, visible scars can impact self-confidence and hinder the desire to interact with others. Whether you have acne scars, surgical scars, or other types of scarring, Dr. Steven R. Cohen at FACES+ offers advanced solutions to minimize the appearance of scars, improve skin texture, and help you feel empowered and confident.

Customized, Comprehensive Treatment Plans

At FACES+, we recognize that each scar is unique. Dr. Cohen conducts a thorough assessment to understand your specific concerns and goals, crafting a personalized treatment plan that considers your scar type, size, and location for the best possible outcome.

Innovative Scar Treatments

Dr. Cohen utilizes a range of innovative treatments tailored to address different types of scar tissue, helping you achieve smoother, more even skin.

Laser Treatments

Fractional CO2 Laser Resurfacing: Targets deep layers of scar tissue to stimulate collagen production and promote smoother skin, effectively reducing the appearance of deeper scars.
Erbium Laser Resurfacing: A gentler laser option, this technique is ideal for surface-level scars, such as fine lines and minor skin irregularities, improving skin texture and tone.

Regenerative Medicine

Nanofat Grafting: Involves injecting fat enriched with regenerative cells into the scar tissue to improve skin quality, smoothness, and color, promoting a more uniform appearance.
Exosome Therapy: Delivers growth factors directly to the scar tissue using tiny biological messengers called “exosomes,” reducing redness and pigmentation while enhancing skin regeneration.

Injectable & Microneedling Treatments

Dermal Fillers: Softens the appearance of depressed scars, like acne scars, by lifting them to the level of the surrounding skin, resulting in a smoother surface.
Steroid Injections: Reduces the size and appearance of raised scars by softening and flattening scar tissue over time.
Microneedling with Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP): Stimulates the skin’s natural healing process, boosts collagen production, and improves the texture of scar tissue. Adding PRP accelerates skin renewal, enhancing the results.

Surgical Scar Revision

Z-Plasty Scar Revision: A surgical technique that reorients the scar along natural skin lines to make it less noticeable. This procedure involves making a series of angled incisions to rearrange the scar tissue, effectively camouflaging the scar and improving its appearance.
W-Plasty Scar Revision: Involves creating a series of zigzag incisions in the scar tissue to break up its appearance and blend it more seamlessly with the surrounding skin. This technique helps reduce the scar’s visibility by redistributing the scar tissue into less conspicuous patterns.
Skin Grafting: A technique that involves removing scar tissue and replacing it with healthy skin from another area of the body. The donor skin is carefully matched in color and texture to the surrounding area, helping to restore a more natural and uniform appearance.

Chemical Peels

TCA (Trichloroacetic Acid) Peels: Exfoliates the outer layer of skin, reducing the appearance of mild to moderate scars and improving overall skin texture.
Phenol Peels: A deep chemical peel that penetrates the dermis, addressing severe wrinkles, deep scars, and extensive sun damage, offering significant skin rejuvenation.
