Pitted Scar

About Pitted Scar

Acne, chicken pox or hand removal of acne could leave pitted scars. Reasons behind this is skin injury caused by these previously mentioned factors destroy the skin structure, which leads to the loss of auto-recovery function and self-resilient of the skin.

Apply skin anesthesia cream and wait for around 30 minutes.

Scan Erbium:YAG laser onto the scarred area. This step will last from 30 minutes to hours depending on area width.

Apply antiseptic and instruction for self-care at home.
