We Understand Where You Are

Every time you catch your reflection, your eyes go straight to that scar. Maybe it's from acne that ravaged your teenage years. Maybe it's from a surgery that saved your life but left a constant reminder. Maybe it's a keloid that grew larger than the original wound. You've learned to position yourself in photos, wear certain clothes, apply makeup strategically—but the self-consciousness never fully fades.

Sound Familiar?

1

Scar creams and silicone sheets that promised fading but delivered little

2

Microneedling that helped slightly but not enough

3

Considered surgical revision but feared making it worse

4

Steroid injections for keloids that flattened temporarily before growing back

If any of this resonates, you're not alone—and there is a better way.

Our Approach

Scars form when your body's healing process goes into overdrive—or doesn't organize properly. At GentleRevive, we don't just treat the surface; we address the underlying collagen structure. Using a combination of fractional lasers, RF microneedling, and when needed, precise steroid or 5-FU injections, we remodel scar tissue from the inside out. For keloids, our multi-modal approach prevents the regrowth that single-treatment methods often miss.

Real Patients, Real Results

Here's what patients say about their experience with scar removal & revision at GentleRevive.

"I'd had this keloid on my chest for 8 years. It started from a small piercing and grew to the size of a golf ball. After three treatments at GentleRevive, it's flat. I can finally take my shirt off at the beach without feeling like everyone is staring."

Marcus T.

Age 28· Chest keloid

Keloid flattened by 90%

"My C-section scar was thick, raised, and still pink after two years. The combination of laser and RF microneedling made it nearly invisible. I wish I'd done this sooner."

Amanda K.

Age 35· C-section scar

Scar flattened and color normalized

"Severe acne in high school left my cheeks pitted and scarred. Makeup couldn't hide the texture. After a series of treatments, the scarring is probably 70% improved. I actually like my skin now."

Devon R.

Age 22· Acne scarring

Significant improvement in ice pick and boxcar scars

Imagine the Difference

Our patients describe finally wearing sleeveless shirts, not positioning themselves strategically in photos, and simply... forgetting about the scar. Not erased—but no longer the first thing they see.
