Laser Scar Removal
Fade scars with precision light technology, restoring smooth, confident skin without invasive surgery.
Laser Technology
Laser scar removal with the Cutera Xeo laser offers a powerful, non-invasive solution to diminish the appearance of scars and restore smoother, more confident skin. This advanced, customizable platform uses precise laser wavelengths, such as the Nd:YAG 1064 nm for Laser Genesis or fractional resurfacing options, to target scar tissue, stimulate collagen production, and promote healthy skin regeneration. Whether addressing acne scars, surgical scars, or hypertrophic marks, the Cutera Xeo breaks down scar tissue while encouraging natural healing, effectively reducing redness, texture irregularities, and pigmentation. With minimal discomfort, no downtime, and suitability for various skin types, this cutting-edge treatment delivers gradual, natural-looking improvements over a series of sessions, empowering you to reclaim your skin’s clarity and vibrancy with lasting results.
The Process
The process of laser scar removal using the Cutera Xeo laser is a precise, non-invasive procedure tailored to improve the appearance of scars with minimal discomfort. It begins with a consultation where a dermatologist or trained technician assesses your scar type—acne, surgical, or hypertrophic—and skin tone to customize the treatment settings, often selecting the Nd:YAG 1064 nm Laser Genesis mode for diffuse redness and texture or a fractional laser for deeper resurfacing. Your skin is cleansed, and protective eyewear is provided. A topical numbing cream may be applied for comfort, though many find the procedure tolerable without it. The provider then uses the Cutera Xeo handpiece to deliver controlled laser pulses across the scarred area, targeting scar tissue to break it down while stimulating collagen and elastin production. The session lasts 15-45 minutes, depending on the scar’s size and severity, with a mild warming or tingling sensation often reported. Post-treatment, your skin may appear red or slightly swollen, resembling a sunburn, but this typically fades within hours to a day.
