Laser Scar Removal in Ottawa

Say goodbye to unwanted scars and hello to smoother skin. At Dermis Advanced Skin Care in Ottawa, our physician-led team offers laser scar removal treatments designed to restore skin clarity and confidence. Whether you’re addressing acne scars, surgical marks, or stretch marks, our advanced technology targets scar tissue and promotes natural healing with minimal downtime.

 

How Laser Scar Removal Works

Targeted energy for refined, radiant skin.

Laser scar removal uses precise light energy to break down scar tissue and stimulate new collagen production. At Dermis, we use fractional CO2 laser technology to treat the deeper layers of your skin while preserving the surrounding healthy tissue. This process smooths skin texture and fades pigmentation over time.

What to expect during treatment:

  • A detailed consultation to assess your scar type and skin history
  • A focused laser session (typically 20–30 minutes), customized to your skin tone and scar depth
  • Mild redness or swelling that subsides within a few hours to a few days

Multiple sessions may be recommended depending on the type and age of the scar. Treatments are spaced four to six weeks apart to allow optimal healing and skin regeneration.

Types of Scars We Treat

From acne to surgical, all skin tells a story

Our laser technology is suitable for treating a wide range of scars across face and body:

  • Acne scars: Including rolling, boxcar, and ice pick types
  • Surgical scars: Whether recent or long-standing, we help soften, flatten, and fade these marks
  • Stretch marks: Laser energy helps break down stretched tissue and stimulate collagen for a smoother look

Every skin story is different. That’s why our consultations are in-depth, allowing us to tailor the experience to your skin tone, scar maturity, and treatment preferences.

 

Benefits of Choosing Laser Over Traditional Treatments

Safe, effective, and non-invasive

Laser scar removal offers multiple advantages when compared to creams, surgery, or dermabrasion:

  • No incisions or needles—just light-based precision
  • Minimal downtime with quick return to normal activities
  • Results that continue to improve with each session as collagen builds
  • Customizable for both lighter and darker skin tones with precision-controlled settings

To enhance your skin’s healing response, we often combine scar therapy with Chemical Peels or Skin Rejuvenation services for best outcomes.

 

What to Expect During Your Journey
