Who Is a Candidate for Laser Scar Treatment?
Candidates for laser scar treatment typically include individuals with stable, mature scars causing discomfort or pain, various types of scars such as acne or surgical scars, and healthy skin free from active infections or inflammation. Non-smokers or those willing to quit smoking, individuals with realistic expectations about outcomes, and those without active skin conditions like psoriasis or eczema in the treatment area are ideal candidates. Suitability may vary based on skin tone, and candidates must be committed to following post-treatment care instructions. Younger skin often responds better, but a consultation with a specialist is essential to determine individual candidacy based on specific skin type, scar characteristics, and overall health.
How Does Laser Scar Treatment Work?
Some patients may require more or fewer treatments than others. However, most patients will only need 4 – 6 laser scar treatments before they've received the maximum benefits of the procedure. After your initial consultation at Aurora Bella Plastic Surgery, we will have a clearer picture of your treatment plan. The length of time you must wait after the formation of a scar depends on its source. For instance, if it stems from a surgical procedure, it is usually safe to perform laser scar treatment after only a few weeks of the stitches being removed, allowing the scar to completely heal. However, acne scars may be treated as soon as the underlying acne outbreak is under control. Unfortunately, there is currently no treatment that can make a scar entirely disappear. Instead, laser scar treatment is a useful method to dramatically reduce the appearance of a scar.
Aurora Bella Plastic Surgery Reviews
If you haven’t heard of Dr Pacheco, let me tell you that you are missing out. I talked to 14 surgeons (mostly men and about 3 women) before I came across Pacheco. I didn’t have a surgeon explain to me the important lifestyle changes that I should make before I have surgery, and she didn’t hesitate to make me aware of the risks. She wasn’t out of line but more worried for me and insistent that I understand how my decisions could impact my recovery.After a few days of working on myself, I quit smoking (which is the major risk), and the day before surgery, I did a hyperbaric chamber therapy session for 90 minutes. On the day of surgery, I did great. I had a great experience, the pain was a little less than I expected, and I was extremely happy with my results. At my follow up, when I saw my scar and the way my healing was already looking, I was blown away by how great it looked. Most of the women I saw on their first day post tummy tuck, were not as tight as I was and their scars were way more visible than mine. She did such a fantastic job on my scar! Seriously, she is the best surgeon and I did my research to find her. I even read every complaint and found the complaints against her were superficial and really not as bad as the other surgeons I was scouting. Dr. Pacheco deserves an award for the effort she puts into each case, the care she takes with each patient, and the way she conducts herself with confidence and compassion is quite literally amazing. If you haven’t heard of Dr Bella Pacheco, you need to meet her before you have surgery with anyone else. She is the goddess of Tummy Tucks.
I had gone to Miami about 4 yrs ago to have my breast implants switched out. She definitely made me feel comfortable and I love the work she did.
I have to say Dr. Pacheco surpasses any and all expectations. She is very knowledgeable and empathetic to all of your concerns. She is a doctor that treats you as a member of her family. You will not regret seeing Dr. Pacheco. Her staff is beyond exceptional, they are attentive to all of your concerns. Dr. Pacheco truly sets the standard. She will set your mind at ease and Karen will always treat you with professionalism no matter how many times you call! 🙂. Dr. Pacheco made me feel 100% comfortable with my decision for breast reduction surgery and spent so much time with me during my initial consultation.
