At GT Aesthetic & Functional Medicine we provide physician-led scar treatment in Marlton, NJ 08053, using an advanced treatment approach. Our goal is to improve skin texture, restore structural integrity, and stimulate natural collagen production. Rather than relying on a single treatment, we combine evidence-based modalities to target scars at multiple levels of the skin.
Dr. Ghazala Farooqui personally supervises every scar treatment – triple board-certified physician with 20+ years of clinical experience. Trained at Columbia University with a fellowship in Integrative Medicine
under Dr. Andrew Weil, Dr. Farooqui specializes in physician-led scar revision for all skin types, including Fitzpatrick III-VI where treatment selection requires specialized expertise to avoid complications.
How are Scars Formed?
Scars form when injury damages the deep layer of skin (dermis). As it tries to repair naturally, your skin produces excess collagen and lays it down in an erratic pattern to close the wound. Depending on the type of wound and individual healing response, scars may have different texture, color and strength.
Our Comprehensive Scar Approach
Effective scar treatment depends on identifying the scar type and choosing the appropriate therapy alone or in combination with others.
At GT Aesthetic & Functional Medicine, we utilize a multifaceted approach to improve the appearance of scars. Our approach breaks down the aberrant collagen in multiple stages and fibroblasts are stimulated in a slow fashion. This allows time for Type 1 collagen to get organized in a basket weave pattern to improve the texture of skin.
Furthermore many advanced treatments we use aim to improve collagen quality and remodeling:
- Microneedling→ stimulates new collagen formation
- PRP → supports tissue health and regeneration
- Subcision → releases tethered scar bands
- Biostimulators → promote longer-term collagen synthesis
- Hyaluronic Acid → acts as a scaffolding where the collagen grows.
A Personalized, Multi-Layered Strategy.
Because Scar treatment is rarely one-size-fits-all. We evaluate:
- Scar type and depth
- Skin type
- Degree of collagen loss
- Overall skin health
By layering treatments strategically, we aim to create progressive, natural-looking improvement.
