Understanding scars and texture
Scars form as skin heals after injury, surgery, burns, chickenpox or acne. Uneven texture and enlarged pores can also come with age, sun damage or oily skin.
Treatment can often improve how scars and texture look and feel. The best approach depends on the type of scar and your skin type.
How scars and texture are treated
Plans often combine treatments over several sessions.
- Microneedling: to stimulate collagen
- Chemical peels: to smooth the surface
- Laser resurfacing: for texture and scars
- Injections: for raised or depressed scars, in selected cases
Who it may suit
May help if you have…
- flat or depressed scars
