What Are Scars?
Scars are areas of fibrous tissue that form as part of the skin’s natural healing response after injury, inflammation, surgery, acne, or burns. As the skin repairs itself, collagen production can become uneven, leading to discoloration, texture irregularities, tightness, or raised and depressed areas. Some scars gradually fade over time, while others remain visibly red, thickened, sensitive, or uneven. The appearance and severity of a scar often depend on genetics, skin type, wound depth, and healing patterns.
What Are the Signs & Symptoms of Scars?
- Persistent redness or pink discoloration
- Raised, thickened, or firm skin texture
- Depressed or uneven areas of skin
- Itching, tenderness, or skin sensitivity
- Tightness or restricted movement in the area
- Darkened or discolored patches after healing
- Visible blood vessels within the scar
- Rough or irregular skin texture
- Gradual thickening during the healing process
- Lingering marks following acne, injury, or surgery
How Are Scars Treated?
Your consultation with Dr. Burch or Dr. Brackenrich begins with a detailed evaluation of your skin, scar type, texture changes, discoloration, and overall healing patterns. You will discuss when the scar developed, how it has changed over time, and any symptoms such as redness, tightness, or sensitivity. Your skin condition, lifestyle factors, and long-term aesthetic goals are carefully considered to create a personalized treatment plan.
Scar treatment is specifically customized to improve tone, texture, and overall skin quality while supporting healthier collagen remodeling. Depending on your concerns, treatment may include Vbeam laser therapy to reduce redness and visible blood vessels, along with other advanced therapies focused on softening raised tissue, refining uneven texture, minimizing discoloration, and creating smoother, more balanced skin over time.
What Happens if Scars Are Left Untreated?
While some scars gradually soften and fade with time, others can become more noticeable as collagen continues to remodel. Persistent redness, uneven skin texture, discoloration, and thickened tissue may remain long after the original injury or breakout has healed. Certain scars may also become increasingly firm, raised, sensitive, or cosmetically distracting over time, particularly when inflammation continues beneath the surface.
Without treatment, you may experience:
- Ongoing redness or discoloration
- Thickened or raised scar tissue
- Increased skin tightness or discomfort
- Persistent uneven skin texture
- Darkening or worsening pigmentation changes
- Greater visibility of acne or surgical scars
- Reduced flexibility near larger scars
- Continued itching, tenderness, or irritation
- More difficult correction as scars mature
