How Scar Treatments Work

How Do Scar Treatments Work?

Scar revision treatments trigger your body’s natural healing process to replace damaged tissue with healthier, smoother skin.
Effective Solutions

ADVANCED SCAR TREATMENTS. PROVEN RESULTS.

Every scar is different. Whether you’re addressing surgical scars, acne scarring, or injury-related marks, we offer evidence-based treatments tailored to your skin, your scar type, and your aesthetic goals.

Laser Skin Resurfacing

Transform scar tissue with fractional CO2 laser technology that erases texture irregularities, stimulates deep collagen renewal, and dramatically improves both depressed and raised scars—our most powerful tool for comprehensive scar revision.

Microneedling

Stimulate natural collagen production with precision microneedling that breaks up scar tissue and promotes smoother, more even skin texture—ideal for acne scars, surgical scars, and depressed scars with minimal downtime.

Dermal Fillers

Instantly elevate depressed scars with advanced hyaluronic acid fillers that restore volume beneath atrophic scars while stimulating natural collagen production for gradual, long-lasting improvement.

Sculptra Aesthetic

Rebuild lost volume beneath deep, indented scars with bio-stimulating injections that gradually restore skin architecture over several months for natural-looking, long-lasting correction of depressed scarring.

IPL / BBL Photofacial

Reduce redness and discoloration in scars with broad-spectrum light therapy that targets pigment irregularities and vascular changes, creating more even skin tone while softening scar visibility.

Custom Wrinkle Treatments

Our expert team uses proven, gentle treatments tailored to reduce redness and rosacea symptoms, helping you achieve clearer, calmer skin with lasting results and minimal downtime.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common Questions About Scar Treatments

What types of scars can be treated?
We treat surgical scars, acne scars, injury scars, burn scars, keloid scars, hypertrophic (raised) scars, atrophic (depressed) scars, and discolored scars. During consultation, we assess your scar type and recommend appropriate treatment options.
Treatment is most effective once the wound is fully healed and closed, typically 6-8 weeks post-injury or surgery. Earlier intervention often produces better outcomes, but older scars can also be significantly improved.
Treatment plans vary based on scar type, depth, age, and size. Most patients require 3-6 sessions spaced 4-6 weeks apart. Superficial scars may improve with fewer treatments, while deep or extensive scarring benefits from comprehensive series.
While complete removal is rarely possible, treatments can significantly reduce scar visibility by 50-80%, improving texture, color, height, and overall appearance. Our goal is natural-looking improvement that blends scars seamlessly with surrounding skin.
Most patients tolerate treatments well. We apply topical numbing cream before procedures and use cooling devices during laser treatments. Sensation varies from mild tingling (IPL) to moderate heat (CO2 resurfacing), with comfort prioritized throughout.
Cosmetic scar treatments are typically not covered by insurance as they’re elective aesthetic procedures. However, treatments for scars causing functional impairment or medical complications may qualify for coverage. We’ll verify your benefits if applicable.
Yes. While newer scars often respond more quickly, mature scars can still be significantly improved. Older scars may require more treatments or combination approaches, but visible improvement is achievable at any stage.

Angel Croce, Staff Manager at Colorado Skin & Vein in Denver

Angel Croce

Staff Manager

Angel has been in healthcare for more than 20 years. Her journey began in 2004, after her father suddenly passed away from a stroke. Losing him was a life-changing experience, and it inspired her to choose a career where she could help others and give patients and their families the care, compassion, and support they need during difficult times.

Throughout her career she has worked across cardiology, neurology, family practice, and urgent care — each experience helping her grow both personally and professionally. She now works in vascular care and aesthetics, where she enjoys building relationships with her patients, helping them understand their care, and making sure they feel comfortable and supported throughout their journey.

Outside of work, Angel is a proud mom of two. Family is incredibly important to her, and in her spare time she loves being outdoors with her husband and their two dogs — hunting, fishing, and enjoying Colorado.

For Angel, healthcare is more than a career — it is personal. What started as a way to honor her father’s memory has become more than two decades of caring for others, and she is grateful to keep doing something that means so much to her every day.
