Scars Treatment In Qatar With Al Siraj Medical Center

Let's face it: having scars on your skin is very frustrating, especially when they're in a spot that's hard to hide.

The good news? There are multiple treatments that can help you treat and minimize their appearance.

So, what are the best options for treating scars? Let's break it down, starting with the basics.

What Are The Types of Scars

As you might know, there are several types of scars, each with different characteristics and treatments. So, it goes without saying that the type of scar you have will help your dermatologist determine the best treatment plan for you.

Atrophic Scars

These scars are sunken or depressed and result from tissue loss. They are often associated with conditions like acne or chickenpox.

Hypertrophic Scars

Hypertrophic scars are raised scars that form due to an overproduction of collagen. They are usually confined to the original wound area and may improve over time.

Keloid Scars

Keloids are raised scars that grow beyond the boundaries of the original wound. They are more common in people with darker skin tones and can be itchy or painful.

Contracture Scars

These scars form when the skin shrinks and tightens after an injury, commonly seen with burns. Contracture scars can restrict movement if they affect muscles, joints, or tendons.

Stretch Marks

Although they're not literally scars, stretch marks are a form of scarring caused by rapid skin stretching or shrinking, leading to skin tears. They often appear on the abdomen, thighs, or chest.

Surgical Scars

As the name suggests, these scars result from surgeries and can vary in appearance depending on the procedure and the individual's healing process. Depending on the person's skin type and the wound's healing, they can be hypertrophic, atrophic, or even keloid scars.

Acne Scars

Acne scars can be either atrophic or hypertrophic and are a common result of severe acne outbreaks.

The Most Effective Treatments for Scars

As we mentioned earlier, the treatment for scars depends on the type and severity of the scar, as well as individual skin types. Here are some of the most effective therapies widely recommended by dermatologists:

Dermabrasion

Dermabrasion is a common acne scar treatment that involves removing the top layer of skin by gently sanding the skin. This treatment will soften and smooth the skin and improve the appearance of scars.

Dermal Fillers

Dermal fillers like hyaluronic acid are injected into indented scars to plump the area and even out the skin. The results you get are usually temporary and last for 50 to 8 months.

Dermal fillers can be effective for atrophic scars.

Topical creams and ointments

Applying silicone ointment to a scar may make it smaller or prevent it from forming. Your dermatologist may also recommend applying corticosteroid cream or a silicone gel sheet to the area.

Chemical peels

Chemical peels use acids (like glycolic or salicylic acid) to remove the outer layers of damaged skin to reveal fresher and smoother skin underneath. They can reduce the appearance of acne scars as well as hyperpigmented scars.

Microneedling

Microneedling involves using a device like Dermapen to create tiny punctures in the skin to stimulate the body's collagen and elastin production to improve the texture and depth of scars. It's typically used for atrophic scars and stretch marks.

Laser therapy

There are various laser treatments that can be used to treat scars, such as fractional laser, laser skin resurfacing, and pulsed dye laser (PDL). Laser therapy entails using focused light to remove layers of skin or stimulate collagen production to improve the appearance of scars. It's considered one of the most effective options for deep and raised scars like acne, surgical scars, burns scars, and keloids.
