What shold I do if I have an older score?
Older scards are defined as more than one year old, are often pale in color, have irregular edges, and are associated with a shadow-catching depression in the skin. Once a scar has reached this point, we can get effective results with the ablative laser, but the impact isn’t as great as what we achieve with a scar in the early phase. In these cases, only a surgical scar revision will bring the desired result, but then the patient has to accept the risk that another scar will form and take a long time to heal.
