COMPREHENSIVE CONSULTATION WITH DR. HOLLAND
Although a scar cannot be completely erased, scar revision can provide a more pleasing cosmetic result. Scars are visible signs that remain after a wound has healed and may be noticeable due to their size, shape or location. They can also be raised and differ in color or texture. Treatment options include topical treatments, minimally invasive procedures and surgical revision. Dr. Holland will determine which option is best for you and create a personalized treatment plan during your consultation.
what to expect
Throughout the scar revision process, Dr. Holland maintains open communication with his patients, fostering a collaborative and patient-centric approach. This ensures that patients are informed, comfortable, and actively involved in their journey towards scar improvement.
Please follow this list of medications and supplements to avoid prior to having your procedure.
surgery
revision surgery
Dr. Holland employs advanced surgical techniques to perform scar revision surgery, which may include excision, tissue rearrangement, or the use of tissue grafts. The goal is to minimize the appearance of the scar, improve its texture, and create a more aesthetically pleasing result.
non-surgical scar revision
MICRONEEDLING
SkinPen Microneedling treatments create controlled micro-injuries in the skin, triggering the body's natural healing response. The goal is to precisely target scar tissue, stimulating collagen production, and promote skin regeneration. The micro-injuries induce a rejuvenating process, improving the overall texture and appearance of scars over time. For more advanced scars, our providers may recommend incorporating Genius Radio Frequency (RF) technology into the treatment plan. RF technology delivers controlled heat to the deeper layers of the skin, further stimulating collagen production and tightening the skin. This dual-action approach helps to improve the elasticity of the skin and reduces the appearance of scars, leading to a smoother and more refined complexion.
Laser Treatment
Laser Genesis is an advanced and non-invasive laser treatment designed to address various skin concerns, including the improvement of scars. This procedure utilizes a gentle laser technology to promote collagen remodeling, reduce redness, and enhance the overall texture and appearance of scars. Our experts incorporate Laser Genesis into treatment plans as a valuable tool to help patients achieve smoother and more even skin.
topical scar therapy

BIOCORNEUM is included with all surgical procedures performed in the operating room.
post-treatment care
Following the removal procedure, Dr. Holland provides detailed post-operative care instructions to facilitate a smooth recovery. Patients are guided on wound care, potential side effects, and the importance of follow-up appointments for monitoring healing and addressing any concerns that may arise.
*Please Note: Your first planning appointment is of utmost importance and you will ultimately achieve a much better outcome for your skin long-term with a proper skin analysis. For our providers to perform this analysis your skin needs to be clean of dirt, oils and makeup. Additionally, safety is Dr. Holland’s priority and removing makeup prior to in-office treatments aids us in providing you with safer, more efficient care. For your convenience, we have a face washing station available if you are unable to arrive with a clean face.
