Scar Treatment in Sacramento, CA | Granite Bay Dermatology & Laser Center
Scarring does more than damage the appearance of the skin; it can also damage one’s sense of well-being and self-esteem. Depressed or raised (hypertrophic) scars can be a result of acne, trauma or surgical procedure. Scar formation is a natural result of the healing process after injury, and various factors determine how well one’s skin heals (to minimize scarring). While the degree of inflammation or trauma will impact the scar’s characteristics, the location of the scar, genetics and ethnicity may affect what the scar looks like.
Treatments include the injection of cortisone medication into scar (thickened scars), laser treatment, fillers, grafting, subcision, or excising scars.
