Living with visible scarring can affect more than how you look. It may also shape how comfortable you feel in your own skin, how freely you move through the world, and how confident you feel from day to day. Whether your scar is a remnant of acne, a surgical procedure, an injury, or something more personal, effective non-surgical treatment options exist that can meaningfully reduce its appearance and help you feel more like yourself again.
At Jubilee Cosmetic Surgery, we deliver scar treatment in Silver Spring with the clinical expertise, sensitivity, and individualized care every patient deserves.
Scar treatment at Jubilee Cosmetic Surgery in Silver Spring covers a wide range of concerns. If you are dealing with acne scarring, targeted laser therapy can significantly reduce the texture, discoloration, and depth of marks left behind after breakouts. We can also address post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, which is the darkening of skin that can follow acne, injury, or inflammation, through coordinated treatment plans that target both pigmentation and surface irregularities simultaneously. Surgical and traumatic scars typically respond well to laser-based revision, and we welcome patients who carry scars from self-harm with the same care and discretion we extend to every individual.
If you are seeking a comprehensive approach to skin concerns beyond scarring, Dr. Berhane will assess your full profile and develop a plan that reflects your specific goals.
Keloids require a specialized treatment approach that differs from standard scar revision. These raised, firm growths extend beyond the boundary of the original wound and can continue to enlarge, cause discomfort, and become a persistent source of frustration. At Jubilee Cosmetic Surgery, Dr. Berhane offers keloid injection therapy using corticosteroids delivered directly into the scar tissue. This treatment can reduce inflammation, flatten the keloid, and ease any associated tenderness or itching. If your keloid scars are more substantial or have not responded adequately to injection therapy alone, our Silver Springs practice also offers surgical keloid removal.
In many cases, we pair surgical removal with post-operative injection therapy or laser treatment to reduce the likelihood of the keloid returning. Dr. Berhane will evaluate your keloid carefully and recommend the approach, or combination of approaches, most likely to deliver a meaningful and lasting result.
The specific treatment plan we create for your scarring will depend on the type, age, size, and depth of the scar, as well as your skin tone and how your skin has responded to any previous treatments. At our practice in Silver Spring, laser scar revision sessions typically take 30 to 60 minutes, with most patients requiring a series of treatments spaced several weeks apart to achieve their desired outcome. Keloid injections are administered in-office and are generally well tolerated, with session schedules determined by the keloid’s response to treatment over time.
During your consultation, Dr. Berhane will walk you through what to expect at every stage of your treatment, giving you a realistic timeline and a clear picture of the results we aim to achieve.
You do not have to accept your scarring as permanent. If you are ready to take the first step toward skin that feels more like your own, reach out to Jubilee Cosmetic Surgery today and schedule a consultation with Dr. Berhane.
Whatever your goals for scar treatment in Silver Spring, we are here to help you pursue them with expertise, compassion, and care.
