A spectrum of choice: Scar treatment can be defined as any intervention performed on a scar. This can vary from simple treatments such as topical massage or tape or silicone gel sheeting/ointment proceeding up to progressively more aggressive and invasive treatments ranging from external energy application (ultrasound, laser, light, radifrequency, etc) up to injections, radiation therapy, surgery and many more options.

Scarring after laser: I am sorry to hear about your scarring. In order to answer more information will be helpful. What type of laser caused the scarring? What part of your body is affected? Do the scars limit your function or are you most bothered by the appearance. There is much that can be done to improve the appearance of scarring including medical treatment, laser therapy, and surgery.
