Scar Revision in OBX
Scars don’t have to be forever. Our inkless scar revision procedure uses a needling technique paired with vitamin-infused serums to help reduce the look of textured, discolored, or raised scars. This method improves the tone, texture, and depth of scarred skin by stimulating collagen, elastin, and melanocytes, allowing your skin to heal and blend naturally over time.
Whether from surgery, acne, or trauma, our approach is ideal for those looking for a non-invasive path to clearer skin.
What Is Scar Revision and How Does It Work?
If you’ve ever asked, what is scar revision, the answer is simple: it’s a treatment that improves the appearance of scars using techniques that support the body’s natural healing. Unlike surgical scar revision, which removes or re-cuts scar tissue, we use a needling device to infuse healing serums into the affected area.
This method, known as inkless scar revision, stimulates collagen and elastin production while evening out skin tone through melanocyte activation. The result is smoother, softer, and more uniform skin.

Our Scar Revision Process
Step One: Consultation
Your journey begins with a personalized consultation. We assess your skin and scar type, surgical, trauma-based, or acne-related, and discuss your goals. Whether your scar is raised, darkened, or indented, we’ll outline a treatment plan designed just for you.
Step Two: Treatment Process
Using a specialized microneedling device, we create controlled micro-channels in the scar tissue. At the same time, we deliver a tailored blend of vitamins and serums into the skin. This combination triggers collagen, elastin, and melanocyte activity, essential ingredients for reducing the appearance of scars and evening out skin tone.
Step Three: Aftercare
Following the treatment, your skin may appear slightly red, similar to a mild sunburn. We provide full guidance for gentle aftercare to maximize results, minimize irritation, and support lasting skin recovery.
