Pitted scars, i.e. depressed scarring, cannot be eliminated once they appear, but their appearance can be improved by laser treatment, dermabrasion and injectable filler treatment.
1. Laser treatment: It mainly utilizes the thermal effect of laser to cause thermal damage to local skin tissues and stimulate collagen regeneration and rearrangement under the skin to improve the degree of depressed scar. Strict sun protection is required after laser treatment, but it usually takes several treatments to achieve the desired goal.
2. Skin resurfacing: to improve depressed scarring is mainly to use mechanical abrasion to make the boundary between the scar and the surrounding skin become blurred, so as to lighten the visual situation of depressed scarring.
3. Injection filler: It is mainly a method to supplement the local tissue deficiency by local injection of filler materials such as autologous fat and hyaluronic acid, so as to make the depressed area level with the surrounding skin.
Due to the different depths of the pits, the treatment will also have some changes. It is recommended that patients who wish to be treated go to a regular hospital in a timely manner. Specific cases require an interview with a specialist before choosing the best treatment plan.
