At Injecting Confidence, we offer advanced treatments that work with your body’s natural healing abilities to improve scar appearance and restore smoother, more even skin.

In our Centennial center, you’ll discover personalized approaches for your specific scarring concerns whether indented, raised, or discolored all delivered with careful attention to your skin’s needs and your desired outcomes.
Understanding Scarring
Scars form when the skin’s normal healing process is disrupted, leading to abnormal collagen formation. Different types of trauma create different scar patterns, each requiring specific treatment approaches for optimal improvement.
Atrophic (indented) scars like those from acne or chickenpox
Hypertrophic (raised) scars that remain within the original injury boundaries
Keloid scars that extend beyond the original wound area
Our comprehensive assessment identifies your specific scar type and characteristics, creating the foundation for truly effective treatment planning.

Treatment Options for Scarring
Potenza
Potenza combines microneedling with radiofrequency to stimulate your skin's own collagen and elastin production deep beneath the surface. This powerful combo smooths texture and fades scars while you enjoy minimal downtime, so your healing fits your busy life.
Microneedling
Our microneedling treatment uses ultra-fine needles to create tiny, controlled skin channels, activating your body's natural repair response. With consistent sessions, your scars soften and skin feels plumper, smoother, and healthier.
Opus® Laser Therapy
Opus® targets stubborn scar tissue below the skin's surface with advanced laser energy, promoting fresh, vibrant skin growth. This treatment improves both texture and tone, helping scars fade and your natural beauty shine through.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many treatments will I need for scar improvement?
Most scars require a series of 3-6 treatments for optimal improvement. Newer, less severe scarring may respond more quickly, while older or deeper scars typically require more sessions. We’ll create a personalized treatment plan based on your specific scarring and response.
Is there downtime with scar treatments?
This varies by treatment type. Microneedling typically involves 1-2 days of mild redness. Potenza may create 2-3 days of redness and possible slight swelling. Opus® laser therapy generally causes 3-5 days of redness and potential mild flaking as the skin renews itself.
Can all scars be completely removed?
While significant improvement is possible for most scars, complete removal is not always achievable. Our goal is to make scars less noticeable by improving their texture, color, and overall appearance. During your consultation, we’ll honestly assess what degree of improvement is realistic for your specific scarring.
When is the best time to treat a new scar?
For optimal results, it’s best to wait until a scar has fully matured, which typically takes 6-12 months after the initial injury. However, early intervention with appropriate treatments can sometimes guide the healing process and minimize final scarring. We’ll recommend the best timing based on your specific situation.
