Scar Therapy
Scars are areas of fibrous tissue that form as part of the body’s natural healing process after an injury, surgery, or skin condition. They develop when the skin repairs itself by producing collagen fibers to close a wound. While scars are a normal part of healing, their appearance and texture can vary depending on factors like depth of the injury, location, and individual skin type. Some scars may become raised, thickened, or tight, which can affect movement or cause discomfort.
How Quintessential Care Can Help
At Quintessential Care, we are trained Restore Scare Therapy Practitioners.
Restore Scar Therapy is a gentle, non-invasive treatment designed to improve the comfort, mobility, and appearance of scars, whether they are recent scars or decades old.
Using evidence-based techniques such as scar massage, fascial release, stretching, vacuum massage, and kinesiology taping, this therapy helps reduce pain, tightness, and sensitivity while improving tissue flexibility and scar texture. It also addresses internal adhesions and post-surgical complications, supporting both physical recovery and emotional wellbeing.

How MLS® Medical Laser Therapy Helps Scars
MLS® Medical Laser Therapy uses advanced light technology to improve scar health and appearance through multiple mechanisms:
- Reduces Inflammation: Calms irritated tissue and decreases swelling around scars.
- Softens Fibrotic Tissue: Breaks down hardened scar tissue, improving flexibility and mobility.
- Enhances Circulation: Stimulates blood flow and lymphatic drainage for better healing.
- Accelerates Cellular Repair: Boosts ATP production to speed up tissue regeneration.

How LymphaTouch® helps Scars
The LymphaTouch® Pro device uses a combination of negative pressure and mechanic vibration to soften fibrotic tissue and scar tissue adhesions in a gentle, pain free and effective way. It improves tissue elasticity, which facilitates skin flexibility and associated joint range of movement working effectively on both new and old scars.
