BURN SCAR CARE SERVICES
01.
Scar Softening Treatments
Burn scars often become thick, raised, and stiff. We use medical-grade therapies—including silicone gels, steroid injections, and topical agents—to soften scar tissue and increase flexibility.
02.
Laser Therapy for Burn Scars
Advanced laser treatments help improve the color, texture, and appearance of burn scars by stimulating collagen and breaking down excess pigmentation. These sessions can also reduce redness and itching.
03.
Pressure Therapy and Dressings
For healing or hypertrophic burn scars, we offer pressure garment guidance and specialty dressings that support optimal healing, prevent excessive thickening, and protect sensitive areas.
04.
Surgical Scar Revision & Grafting
In cases of severe contractures or function-limiting scars, our plastic surgery partners may provide skin grafts or revision procedures to improve mobility and appearance.
