Scar reduction with skin needling
Scars from injuries, surgeries, or other causes can be a significant concern, affecting not just your skin’s appearance but also your self-esteem. At New Age Spa, serving Montreal and Laval, we provide a range of effective treatments to minimize and potentially erase these scars. Our advanced techniques, including DP4 microneedling, microdermabrasion, and chemical peels, are designed to address and improve scar tissue. Discover how we can help you achieve smoother, more consistent skin.
Understand Scars
Scars are part of the body’s natural healing process following an injury. Their appearance can vary widely, depending on the nature of the injury and your body’s healing capabilities. Factors like the size and depth of the wound, your age, and even your genetics can influence how your skin scars. While some scars may fade over time, others might become more prominent or discolored.
our scar removal treatment
DP4 Microneedling for Scar Reduction: DP4 Microneedling is a revolutionary technique that enhances the skin's natural healing processes. By creating micro-injuries on the skin, it stimulates collagen and elastin production, crucial for repairing and smoothing scar tissue. Microdermabrasion for Smoother Skin: Microdermabrasion is a non-invasive treatment that removes the outermost layer of dead skin cells. For scarred skin, it helps to even out the skin texture and promote new, healthy skin growth, making scars less noticeable. Chemical Peels to Improve Skin Appearance: Chemical peels involve applying a solution to the skin, which causes the top layers to peel off. This process reveals fresher, smoother skin beneath and can be very effective in reducing the visibility of scars, particularly those that are superficial.

Are these treatments painful? Discomfort levels are generally low, but we use numbing creams and other anesthetics to ensure your comfort during treatments like microneedling and chemical peels.
Can these treatments be combined for better results? Yes, combining treatments can often lead to better results. We customize treatment plans that may include one or more types of treatments based on your specific skin condition and goals.

Additional Information and Pre-Post Care Instructions
Before Treatment:
-
Avoid Sun Exposure: Refrain from excessive sun exposure and tanning beds for at least one week before your appointment. Sunburned or tanned skin can increase the risk of complications and discomfort during the procedure.
-
Discontinue Certain Products: Stop using retinoids, alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs), beta hydroxy acids (BHAs), and other exfoliating skincare products for a few days before your treatment. These products can increase skin sensitivity and irritation.
-
Stay Hydrated: Ensure that your skin is well-hydrated leading up to your appointment. Drink plenty of water and moisturize your skin regularly to maintain optimal hydration levels.
After Treatment:
-
Apply Soothing Products: Use gentle, non-irritating skincare products recommended by your skincare professional to soothe and hydrate your skin post-treatment. Avoid products containing harsh ingredients or fragrances that may exacerbate sensitivity.
-
Protect Your Skin: Shield your skin from direct sun exposure by wearing a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher. Sunscreen helps prevent sunburn and minimizes the risk of hyperpigmentation, especially during the initial healing phase.
-
Avoid Harsh Treatments: Refrain from using abrasive scrubs, exfoliants, or harsh skincare treatments for at least one week. These products can disrupt the skin’s healing process and increase the risk of irritation.
-
Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of water and moisturize your skin regularly to maintain hydration and support the healing process. Hydrated skin promotes faster recovery and enhances the results.
-
Follow Post-Treatment Instructions: Adhere to any specific post-treatment instructions provided by your skincare professional. This may include avoiding certain activities, skincare products, or medications that could interfere with the healing process.
-
Be Patient: Results may take time to become noticeable as the skin undergoes the natural healing and regeneration process. Be patient and consistent with your skincare routine to achieve optimal results over time.
