How Laser Scar Removal Works
Using advanced laser technology, Icon Laser Scar Removal targets and breaks down the tissue comprising unwanted scars. The laser energy delivered to the scar tissue triggers the body’s natural healing process – stimulating the skin to repair itself so the scars disappear over time. Perfect for acne scar removal, the Icon Laser Scar Removal treatment helps our Grand Rapids patients obtain the smooth, even-looking skin they have hoped for.
Whether used for acne scar removal, to treat surgical scars, or its numerous other applications, the Icon Laser Scar Removal procedure delivers specialized pulses of energy to the treatment area using the latest, most advanced laser technology. Icon Laser Scar Removal can effectively treat unwanted scars, wrinkles, and stretch makes without damaging the surrounding skin whatsoever. Once the skin of the targeted area fully absorbs the energy, over the next few weeks, the body’s healing process will cause new, healthy skin cells to develop in its place. After undergoing Icon Laser Scar Removal, our Grand Rapids patients will begin to see their skin’s coloration and smoothness continue to improve incrementally.
Depending on the size of the treatment area, Icon Laser Scar Removal only takes about a half hour to perform. Most of our Grand Rapids patients see dramatic scar reduction results in only 3 treatments! Up to 7 quick treatments may be required for deeper or more extensive scarring. Since everyone’s needs are different, our aesthetician will develop a customized treatment plan for each of our laser scar removal patients.

Laser Scar Removal Instructions
Our Grand Rapids patients should keep any unprotected exposure to the sun to an absolute minimum for no less than two weeks before their Laser Scar Removal appointment. During this time, patients should also refrain from using tanning beds, and should not apply tanning creams to the treatment area. Before undergoing laser scar removal, patients should also make sure the treatment area is free from any kind of makeup or lotion.
We remind our patients that it is perfectly normal for temporary redness or swelling to occur immediately following the procedure – which patients can typically expect it to subside within as little as 2 to 24 hours. This is simply a perfectly harmless side effect of laser scar removal, and should last no longer than 3-5 days. In most cases it is comparable to a mild to moderate sunburn.
After undergoing laser scar removal, Grand Rapids patients should avoid sun exposure as much as possible. Throughout the course of their treatment plan, patients should also wear a sunscreen of SPF 45 or greater at all times.
