At Sereno Santé, we understand the cosmetic and functional drawbacks that scarring can provide. Our Los Gatos, CA patients who have scarring, whether from recent medical trauma or accidents from decades before, can benefit from Hybrid OScar scar treatment in a number of ways, including:

• Reduced pain and itching at scar site
• Minimized redness and hyperpigmentation
• Flattening out of raised scars or ridges from scar tissue
• Works on scar tissue below the skin’s surface for a deep treatment

Ideal candidates for scar treatment with Alma Hybrid are individuals who are seeking to improve the appearance of scars resulting from various causes, such as acne, surgery, or injury. The Alma Hybrid system combines the benefits of fractional laser technology and radiofrequency (RF) energy, making it suitable for treating various scar types and depths. Optimal candidates for this treatment should have stable scar tissue and good overall health. They should not have any active skin infections or open wounds in the treatment area. It’s critical for candidates at Sereno Santé who get this treatment to know that while this treatment is designed to improve the physical appearance of the scar and decrease its size, it won’t completely disappear.

Immediately after the scar treatment procedure with Alma Hybrid, you may experience mild redness and swelling in the treated area. These reactions typically subside within a few hours to a few days. The procedure stimulates your body’s natural healing process, so visible improvement in scar appearance doesn’t happen immediately. It can take several weeks for the full effects to become apparent. During this time, your scar will gradually fade, becoming smoother and less noticeable. To aid in recovery and enhance results, it’s essential to follow the aftercare instructions provided by the Sereno Santé. This might include avoiding sun exposure and applying a specific moisturizer or topical treatment as prescribed by our Los Gatos, CA team.
