Scar correction
Expected pain: Minimal
Anaesthesia: Local or sedation

Scarring: Depends on the area being corrected
Final result: After 3 months
Time off work: Depends on the area or treatment performed

Why?
Scars are treated either by a surgical operation, or with the MiXto SX® laser.
Mechanism of Action
When a beam of CO2 light makes contact with the skin, it heats, vaporises and immediately eliminates the superficial layers of the skin. A new epidermis is then formed thanks to the increased collagen production induced by the MiXto SX® laser.
Areas Concerned, Indications and Contraindications
All the areas of the face and the body can be treated.
Verloop van een sessie
The treatment takes about 20 minutes according to the size and the colour of the scar.
Several sessions may be needed.
After the treatment, the treated area changes colour and little blisters can form at the place that has been treated. These are only temporary and usually disappear after a few days.
For the period of treatment, and therefore certainly in the weeks before and after it, it is recommended that any excessive exposure to the sun, sunbeds, and self-tanning cream be avoided. In most cases, the results are already visible after a few weeks.
Intended results
Laser treatment can make scars disappear.
