Richmond, VA -- (SBWIRE) -- 11/16/2015 -- Scars, no matter how large or small, can affect patient's emotions, confidence, and self-esteem Dr. Travis Shaw, MD of Richmond, VA, has dedicated his career to helping patients regain their confidence with cosmetic and reconstructive surgery, including scar revision in Washington, DC.
Since no two scars are the same, and scars come in a variety of sizes, types and levels of severity, Dr. Travis Shaw and his team consider a plethora of multiple treatment options before creating a customized scar treatment plan for each patient. These treatments draw on a selection of the most cutting-edge technologies available and are affordable for a range of budgets.
Two of the most common approaches that Dr. Travis Shaw uses to treat scars are the Lumenis Ultrapulse laser, a fractionated CO2 laser, and the PicoSure laser by CynoSure. These lasers quickly deliver light energy to deep layers of the skin to repair warped collagen and restore a normal color to the scar. These laser treatments are sometimes combined with platelet-rich plasma therapy, which studies suggest can encourage new tissue growth and rejuvenation in areas affected by scar tissue.
