Scar Removal

There are many factors when deciding how to treat a particular scar. One of the biggest factors is the type of scar being treated, a hypertrophic scar may need to be treated completely differently from a depressed ice-pick scar. Another factor would be the color of the scar, if it is a red scar a laser could be effective at drastically reducing the scar's appearance, but a laser may not be as effective when trying to remove a white scar.

Only a physician trained in proper skin care and surgery techniques will be able to tailor the best treatment to help get rid of scars.

My Zeltiq treatment with dr. Dover was a real success. He was extremely skilled and was determined to do the best for me. I am thrilled with the results and I totally recommend him as your doctor. Totally professional, his staff is extremely friendly and helpful, it was a very good experience. Not only did he help me with my little pooch problem, but he also gave me a real confidence boost. I am having my second treatment with dr Dover and I am confident that everything will go perfectly. Highly recommended doctor and staff.
