From boxcar scars and ice pick scars to keloid and rolling scars, they break down the characteristics of each type and explain how to tell what kind of scarring you're dealing with, because the key to successful treatment is accurate diagnosis.

They share expert insights on the best treatments available, including subcision, hyaluronic acid fillers, laser and energy-based devices, as well as affordable, non-invasive options that really work. Expect honest, practical advice on what delivers results, and what to avoid.
