Subcision with PRP

Subcision with PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) is a specialized technique used to improve the appearance of scars, particularly those caused by acne or other traumatic injuries. Subcision involves the insertion of a needle or a small blade beneath the scar tissue to release the fibrous bands that tether the scar to the underlying tissue. This process helps to break up the scar tissue and stimulate collagen production. PRP, derived from the patient’s own blood, is then injected into the treated area to further enhance the healing process and promote tissue regeneration.

When it comes to treatment options for scars, subcision with PRP offers several advantages. It is a minimally invasive procedure that can be performed as a standalone treatment or in combination with other scar revision techniques for optimal results. Subcision helps to improve the texture and appearance of scars by releasing the fibrous bands and stimulating the growth of new collagen. The addition of PRP, with its rich concentration of growth factors, enhances the healing process and further supports the rejuvenation of the skin.

   I have been going to Metropolis Dermatology for about two years now, and it has been, and continues to be, a wonderful experience. The staff are always friendly, thorough, and welcoming. They make everything run so smoothly, and I appreciate how prompt they are in answering any questions I have.

But the star of the show is Dr. Shauna Higgins! I could spend all day writing about what an incredible physician she is. She is the kind of doctor people wish for. She’s incredibly caring, so attentive, and extremely knowledgeable. At every appointment with her, I walk out feeling seen and heard, and I always leave with a smile on my face.

Prior to coming to her, I was struggling with my skin in many ways, but she has completely fixed all of those issues! If I could have her as all of my doctors, I absolutely would.

   They have snacks, tea, coffee , and  water for you. The staff is very nice and pleasant.  One staff suggested a nice restaurant and bakery . Dr. Higgins  is excellent and has great communication skills. I asked  a few questions and she gladly answered. Some doctors are short and blunt and you don't feel comfortable asking questions.  I'm glad Metropolis is not that type of medical facility . The staff are courteous,  the place is clean and they have snacks!
