The quantity injected into the skin will depend on the size and firmness of the scar. An injection of collagen can improve the appearance of the scar straight after application, but it does not have a permanent effect and will need to be replaced. The collagen used can be human or bovine. Hyaluronic acid injection has a slightly longer lasting effect compared to collagen injection. A full-thickness deep depressed scar can be elevated with the injection of the patients’ own fat or donated fascia (fibrous tissue and fat that connects the skin to the underlying tissue underneath).]]></description> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.medimise.com/skin/soft-tissue-fillers-collagen-hyaluronic-acid-or-fat-injections/feed</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>Laser Resurfacing and Pulsed Dye Laser Scar Revision</title><link>http://www.medimise.com/skin/laser-resurfacing-and-pulsed-dye-laser-scar-revision</link> <comments>http://www.medimise.com/skin/laser-resurfacing-and-pulsed-dye-laser-scar-revision#comments</comments> <pubDate>Wed, 19 Nov 2008 23:41:41 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>Medimise</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Skin]]></category> <category><![CDATA[acne]]></category> <category><![CDATA[acne scar]]></category> <category><![CDATA[acne scar treatment]]></category> <category><![CDATA[chicken pox and other types of scars]]></category> <category><![CDATA[keloids]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Laser Resurfacing]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Pulsed Dye Laser Scar Revision]]></category> <category><![CDATA[raised scars]]></category> <category><![CDATA[scar]]></category> <category><![CDATA[scar treatment]]></category> <category><![CDATA[skin texture]]></category> <category><![CDATA[surgical]]></category> <guid

Within this method the damaged skin is removed or remodelled using a high-energy light. After recovering the skin may stay pink for many weeks or months, especially if the skin is resurfaced with carbon dioxide laser. Different types of laser can be used depending upon the type of scar to be treated. Pulsed dye laser can be used to flatten raised scars (hypertrophic scars or keloids) as well as to reduce scar redness by applying a yellow laser light to the skin. In order to obtain a good result it may be needed to repeat the treatment two times or more every two months. Itching and burning feeling in the scar can also be treated with yellow laser light. The appearance of acne scars or indented (atrophic) scars can be enhanced with laser skin resurfacing.]]></description> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.medimise.com/skin/laser-resurfacing-and-pulsed-dye-laser-scar-revision/feed</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>What is a scar?</title><link>http://www.medimise.com/skin/what-is-a-scar</link> <comments>http://www.medimise.com/skin/what-is-a-scar#comments</comments> <pubDate>Tue, 18 Nov 2008 22:25:15 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>Medimise</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Skin]]></category> <category><![CDATA[acne scar treatment]]></category> <category><![CDATA[scar]]></category> <category><![CDATA[scar treatment]]></category> <guid

It is a normal part of the healing process as the skin tries to repair itself. The greater the wound to the skin and the longer it takes for the skin to recover there is a greater chance of the scar becoming more evident. A new scar is normally red and thick at first, it tends to fade away gradually with time after the skin heals completely. Some scars may improve on their own over a period of six to eighteen months. The formation of a scar will depend upon the person’s age as well as the location of the body or face. A young skin has a strong repair capability, leading to larger, thicker scars. A scar can never be completely removed. A treatment will not bring the skin back to its original state before the injury occurred, but it can minimise the mark, making it less obvious. There are different ways of treating scars and as each scar is different each will require a different treatment.
