Scar Recovery Program

A program tailored to scar type and goals, combining laser and medical pigmentation.

What it is

The Scar Recovery Program is a tailored, non-surgical approach to improving the appearance of scars, customized to the type of scar and your goals. It combines treatments over a course for the best overall improvement.

Depending on the scar, the program typically combines CO2 laser treatment to improve texture and color with scar camouflage (medical pigmentation) to blend remaining discoloration. It improves how a scar looks rather than removing it.

What it can improve

  • Texture and surface of a scar through laser
  • Color and blending through medical pigmentation
  • Overall visibility of a scar
  • A combined, tailored approach for better results

It does not remove a scar completely, may need several sessions, and results depend on the scar type, age, and your skin. Very deep or contracted scars may need surgical treatment first.

Quick facts

  • Program length: A planned course over weeks to months
  • Sessions: Several, spaced appropriately
  • Includes: CO2 laser, scar camouflage (medical pigmentation)
  • Downtime: Several days from laser, minimal from pigmentation
  • Results timeline: Builds over the course
  • Maintenance: Touch-ups for pigmentation

Before the procedure

The scar is assessed for its type, age, and depth, and your skin type is considered, so the program is tailored. The expected sessions and realistic improvement are explained, and a test may be used.

During the procedure

The program combines CO2 laser sessions to improve texture and color with medical pigmentation to blend remaining discoloration, sequenced for the best overall result.

After the procedure

Downtime is greatest after laser, with several days of redness and flaking, while pigmentation has minimal downtime. Improvement builds over the course, and pigmentation may need touch-ups.

Results: what it can and cannot achieve

A less noticeable, better-blended scar is achievable over the course. The program cannot remove a scar entirely, results depend on the scar and skin type, and pigment fades over time. Each treatment has its own considerations, explained beforehand.

Possible risks and complications

The program combines treatments each with its own risks. Across the program these include:

  • Redness, swelling, and flaking from laser
  • Pigmentation change, especially in darker skin
  • Imperfect color match from medical pigmentation, which can change with sun
  • Infection, which is uncommon
  • The specific considerations of each component treatment

Each treatment within the program is explained and consented individually. Laser settings are matched to skin type, and sun protection is important throughout.

The best surgeon

I had a circumferential abdominoplasty with Matteo Amoroso, and I can honestly say I couldn't have wished for a better surgeon. From the moment I met Matteo, I felt the sense of security I was looking for. He was kind, attentive, and professional from the very beginning. He took the time to explain everything in detail and answered all my questions, which made me feel well-informed before the surgery. I never had to go home and wonder about anything because he was so thorough in his explanations. It's now been three weeks since my surgery, and even though the healing process is still ongoing, I'm already incredibly happy with the result. The change is greater than I had dared to hope for, and I feel so grateful that I chose Matteo. I have more surgeries I want to undergo in the future, and there's no doubt that Matteo will be my first choice then too. I warmly recommend him to anyone considering plastic surgery!

A pro

I've had two surgeries with Matteo. The first was liposuction on my stomach, and most recently, my eyes – specifically, my lower eyelids and eyebrows. Matteo suggested a unique technique for my eyebrows that no other surgeon had proposed. This allowed me to remove excess skin under my eyebrows without needing an eyebrow or forehead lift, which I wasn't interested in. I'm extremely happy with the results of both my procedures. Matteo is a true professional; he loves his work, and you're always met with kindness and genuine care. He's an excellent communicator, explaining everything clearly and answering all questions and concerns. You feel completely confident in his knowledge and experience. Matteo also has a wonderful ability to make you feel understood; he listens carefully and is just as dedicated and invested as you are in achieving a successful procedure and outcome. I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Matteo. I've had surgery 6 times in total, with the last two being with him. Whatever my next procedure may be, I will undoubtedly choose Matteo first again.

The best surgeon

Matteo is an incredibly skilled surgeon whom I highly recommend. I underwent a major tummy tuck, and from the very first consultation, Matteo was professional, calm, and very accessible. He took the time to answer all my questions and made me feel secure, involved, and well-informed throughout the entire process. He thoroughly explained the procedure, recovery, and what results I could expect, which gave me great confidence going into the surgery. Everything went very well without any complications, and I am very happy with the result. I would undoubtedly choose Matteo again if I were to have more procedures in the future.

The best choice for a plastic surgeon!

Dr. Amoroso has performed several operations on me, including a neck and facelift with fat grafting, a lip lift, eyelid surgery, breast and tummy tucks, and liposuction on my knees. All operations have been successful and exceeded my expectations. I have worked with doctors for 50 years and am very impressed by Dr. Amoroso's artistry and skill. He is truly an asset to this profession and to patients who desire excellent results and the peace of mind that comes from being cared for in a responsible and professional manner.

Successful 360 lipo

Matteo is the best surgeon I could ever imagine. I am beyond satisfied. Both the care I received and the results of the 360 liposuction Matteo performed on me have been absolutely fantastic. It couldn't have been better! Everything has exceeded my expectations. Matteo is professional, skilled, competent, caring, reassuring, and experienced. Thank you, Matteo!
