Treating Body and Facial Scars Effectively

| July 24, 2024

Scars are as varied in appearance as the different experiences which give them to us.

Some are pale and light in color, while others appear much darker than the surrounding skin. Trauma, acne, and past surgeries are all things which can cause noticeable scars.

Two of the most commonly recognizable types of scars are:

Atrophic Scarring: Occurs when damage causes excess inflammation and/or damage to the muscle and fat deeper within the skin. It looks like missing, depressed, pock-marked, or sunken skin.

Hypertrophic or Keloid Scarring: Occurs when, as the skin heals, the body produces an excess amount of collagen. It looks like thicker skin of a different texture, which is unevenly raised above the surrounding area.
