Scar Shouldering with RF Treatment in Bangalore

Scar Shouldering with RF is a minimally invasive, advanced scar-revision approach that helps depressed scars with sharp edges and unevenness blend with the surrounding skin. In this treatment,  the dermatologist uses radiofrequency energy to carefully level indented scars by shaving down the elevated edges (shoulders) of the scars.

High-frequency radio waves, typically 2 to 4 MHz, are used to cut, coagulate, and ablate the scar tissues. Radiofrequency energy causes water in the scar tissue to vibrate, generating steam. The steam causes ablation of the scarred tissue while coagulating and sealing the underlying blood vessels.

The dermis of the scarred tissue is also heated to stimulate collagen remodeling, skin regeneration, and skin tightening. With fresh collagen and elastin, the skin gets firmer and more elastic. Ultimately, the depth and visibility of scars are reduced, and overall skin texture and appearance improve.

Radiofrequency electrocautery provides controlled, precise scar revision without unnecessary harm to the surrounding skin.

It involves the use of high-frequency radio waves that generate controlled thermal energy. This energy can help reduce prominent acne scar edges and skin texture irregularities, and stimulate collagen remodeling for gradual, natural improvement in skin texture and tone.

Unlike traditional cautery approaches, radiofrequency electrocautery is more precise, acts at controlled depths, and provides quicker healing with minimal downtime and low risk of bleeding. Thus, it's ideal for acne scar revision.
