Scar Treatment FAQ
How does the Hybrid procedure work?
Throughout the scar revision procedure, laser energy penetrates the deep layers of your skin. This treatment works to spur your collagen generation over time, so you will likely find that your outcomes continue to improve over a few weeks or months following one or several laser scar procedures at Sereno Santé.
What forms of scarring can be treated with Alma Hybrid?
The Hybrid OScar procedure at our Los Gatos, CA office can address just about any type of scar that appears on the skin, whether attributed to a past accident, burn, surgery, or the effects of acne breakouts. A scar can look thick (hypertrophic), flat, indented (atrophic scars), dark, or pinkish. We can alter your treatment to improve your particular situation.
Can the Hybrid OScar treatment entirely eliminate my scar?
As a rule, there's no way to completely eliminate scars. However, the scar revision procedure can help to significantly limit the prominence of a scar and give your skin a more normal feel and a more even glow.
Can the Hybrid treatment work on any skin tone?
No matter your skin color or tone, our Hybrid scar treatment can work on your skin. By utilizing customizable technology, we are able to adjust our laser to the needs of your exact skin tone and type. Contact our office to see if the Hybrid scar treatment system is right for you.
