Atrophic Scars
An atrophic scar develops when the skin cannot regenerate tissue correctly. Unlike keloids and hypertrophic scars, atrophic scars are indented in appearance due to healing that occurs below the expected layer of skin. This type of scar is most commonly associated with chickenpox or acne, although they also form as the result of having a mole removed or after types of surgery including MOHS reconstruction.
Causes
- Injuries that slice through your skin’s top layer
- Penetrating and damaging the dermis
Indications
- These scars sit below the surface of your skin, giving the skin a sunken or pitted look. Most depressed scars form on the face.

Adipose SVF is used for many orthopedic applications in the clinical setting. These types of stem cells differentiate into cartilage and bone tissue, which is proven in many clinical studies. ASCs in the form of SVF possibly work by secreting cytokines, chemokines, and growth factors, which stimulate healing and tissue regeneration.In a Stem Cell treatment, a serum with active growth factors is applied to the face. A device with very fine needles is then maneuvered by the doctor on the skin to promote deeper penetration of the serum.
