Prior to any treatment or procedure, Dr. Chernoff or one of our trained and certified Health Care Providers determine if you are a candidate, review the risk and benefits, and provide all possible treatment alternatives.

What Are The Different Types of Scars?

Scars are a natural part of the healing process resulting from an abnormal overgrowth of tissue. Scars can leave a red-raised mark, a fine line or a pitted hole on the skin. The different types of scars include:

  • Normal fine-line scars
    A minor cut will usually heal which will gradually get paler and flatter over time. Fine-line scars are common following an injury or after surgery leaving a raised pale scar. On darker skin, the scar tissue may fade to leave a brown or white mark.
  • Keloid scars
    A keloid scar is a special type of scar that results from overgrowth of tissue that occurs when too much collagen is produced at the site of the wound. For some people, the keloid scar keeps growing. Removal of keloid scars requires specialized expertise to optimize results and minimize more damage to the skin. Learn more about treatment for keloid scars.
  • Hypertrophic scars
    Hypertrophic scars are also the result of excess collagen being produced at the site of a wound or injury but not as much overgrowth of tissue is produce as compared with keloid scars. Also, hypertrophic scars don’t extend beyond the boundary of the original wound, but they may continue to thicken for up to six months.
  • Pitted or sunken scars (Atrophic scars)
    Some scars caused by skin conditions, such as acne and illnesses such as chickenpox can cause scars that have a pitted or sunken appearance.
  • Stretch Marks
    Stretch marks are long, narrow streaks or stripes that occur when the skin is stretched too quickly. Learn more about stretch mark treatments.

What Types of Treatments Are Available for Scars?

Scar Treatment Example
At Chernoff Cosmetic Surgery in Indianapolis, IN, Dr. Chernoff uses a multi-modality approach to improving scars. Complex and deep scars may require surgical revision as well as non-surgical therapies (injectable, laser, and cellular) during the scar revision and healing process.

We are equipped to treat all levels and types of scars, including acne scars, keloids, surgical and/or trauma scores, or scars left behind by diseases like chickenpox. The type and level of treatment depend on the depth and severity of the scar and the patient’s desired aesthetic goals.

  • Chemical peels – Peels help to treat shallow scars and promote even skin tone.
