Acne and Surgical Scar Treatments
Icon™ Laser Acne and Surgical Scar Treatments
Your scar may have an interesting story behind it, but it may also be a source of embarrassment. Icon laser treatments can significantly fade the appearance of acne and surgical scars to reveal your own skin.
How Does Laser Scar Treatment Work?
The Icon uses fractional laser light beams to target scar tissues without harming the skin. The Icon’s powerful laser energy activates the body’s healing response to produce new skin cells. The immune system works to replace areas of scar tissue to naturally reduce the appearance of acne and surgical scars. Laser scar treatments are revolutionary because as new tissues naturally develop, the surrounding skin is not damaged. Laser scar removal is safe for most skin types and areas, including facial scars.

What to Expect During Icon Laser Scar Reduction
Laser scar treatments usually take less than 30 minutes. Depending on the patient’s condition, three to five treatment sessions are often recommended to achieve the best results. Icon scar reduction is not painful, but a cooling cream can be applied to reduce discomfort during the laser application. Patients are often able to resume their normal activities immediately following the procedure without any downtime.
