Concerns
Scars and uneven texture
Scar tissue is structurally different from the skin around it, which is why creams sit on top of the problem. Remodelling it means injuring it deliberately and in a controlled way so it rebuilds.
Fractional resurfacing and radiofrequency microneedling both do this by different routes, and which suits you depends on the scar's depth, age and where it is.
Stretch marks after weight change or pregnancy respond to the same principle. Older, white stretch marks improve less than newer red ones — that is worth knowing before you start rather than after.
