Scars

Scars are a natural way for skin to heal and can occur anywhere on the body for various reasons, such as inflammation (often as a result of acne), injury, or surgery. If scars bother you for any reason—whether aesthetic, psychological, or physical—the expert team at the Lasàm Clinic, led by Dr. Milena Stojanović, MD will determine the best plan and combination of treatments suitable for your skin type and the nature of the scars.

Scar treatment requires a multidisciplinary approach, and if possible, treatment should start as early as possible, although it's never too late to achieve excellent results.

Methods for Scar Removal at the Lasàm Clinic:

• LASER (CO2 and Erbium Fractional Laser)

• Microneedling and PRP

• SUBCISION

• Punch Excision

• TCA Chemical peels

Laser (CO2 and Erbium Fractional Laser)

Laser scar treatment is the most reliable method for scar treatment and yields excellent results. The laser delivers heat to scar tissue beneath the skin, stimulating the natural production of new collagen. This gradually replaces scar tissue with new, healthy skin. Laser resurfacing on the skin's surface cleans and superficially narrows the scar, removes spots, and tightens enlarged pores. The experience and knowledge of dermatologists are crucial in determining laser parameters for scar removal, necessitating a dermatological examination before treatment selection.

Microneedling and PRP

Microneedling is based on the principle of skin self-renewal. The treatment uses a device with needles (with or without applying heat) that penetrate the skin's superficial layers, creating controlled micro-injuries. Each of these micro-injuries stimulates natural renewal processes and collagen synthesis, achieving natural skin regeneration. This procedure combines perfectly with other methods of skin biorevitalization and chemical peels, enhancing effectiveness.

PRP involves using the patient's own plasma, which, when injected into the skin, strongly stimulates its regeneration, contributing to collagen production to improve its structure and create new youthful tissue. Since the plasma is separated from the patient's own blood, there is no risk of allergic or immune reactions.

Subcision

Subcision is a minor surgical procedure to treat deep scars. A medium-length cannula (a type of blunt and flexible needle) is inserted under the scarred skin area. By moving it, the connections between collagen-fibrous fibers that pull the scar's base are severed. After releasing the scar's base, depressions on the skin become less visible, and the skin is ready for other methods that stimulate collagen and skin renewal.

Punch Excision

Punch excision is a minor surgical procedure used for extensive scars, involving circular skin cutting with a diameter of 1.5 to 3 mm and reapproximating the scar's edges by re-stitching. After punch excision, all other scar treatment methods can be applied.

TCA Chemical peels

This treatment uses TCA (Trichloroacetic Acid) peel at high concentration to remove scarred skin areas, resulting in intensive regeneration and improved skin appearance, thereby reducing the scar. Chemical peels are a particularly good choice for acne scars and deep scars. This type of peeling falls under medical peels, requiring knowledge and experience to avoid skin damage. Due to the high concentration of acid, TCA chemical peeling is performed in autumn and winter when the UV radiation is not at its highest.
