About the Treatment

Scar & Stretch Mark Revision in Camas & Vancouver, WA

A scar carries a story — surgery you got through, an accident you survived, a pregnancy that changed your body. None of that has to mean living with how it looks now. Laser revision is a well-established, non-surgical way to soften texture, blend discoloration, and let a scar recede into the skin around it.


Searching for laser scar revision near me in the Vancouver or Camas, WA area? At Body Balance Health & Aesthetics Medicine in Camas, we treat surgical scars, accident and trauma scars, and stretch marks from pregnancy, growth, or weight change — including both new red or purple marks and older white or silver ones. Revision is performed exclusively by Alana Berdiyev, DNP, ARNP, our onsite medical director, who holds an Advanced Fotona Laser Medicine Certification — because scar tissue responds differently than healthy skin. HSA/FSA eligibility may vary by treatment and should be confirmed with your plan.

"Every scar is different, and so is my approach. I build the plan around your skin's specific history — not a generic protocol." — Alana Berdiyev, DNP, ARNP, FNP-C · Medical Director & Founder, Body Balance Med

How It Works

How Laser Scar & Stretch Mark Revision Works

Laser revision targets scar tissue at several depths at once — breaking down the dense, disorganized collagen bands that make a scar look and feel different from the skin around it, while stimulating healthier new collagen and elastin to take its place.


Across a session series, this reduces thickness, fades discoloration, and blends the treated area into the surrounding skin tone. The approach differs by scar type: surgical and accident scars often need work on thickness and texture, while stretch marks respond best to collagen stimulation that restores elasticity and evens tone.

Featured Treatment

Stretch Mark Revision After Pregnancy — Camas & Vancouver, WA

Post-pregnancy stretch marks are the most common reason patients book this treatment, and they're also the one where timing matters most. Newer marks — still red or purple — respond faster and more completely than older ones, because the tissue is still actively remodeling and the laser has more to work with.


Older white or silver marks still improve, but progress is slower and the realistic goal shifts from fading to softening texture and narrowing width. We'll tell you which category yours fall into at consultation, and what that means for session count, before you commit to anything.

Most Common Request

Meet Your Provider

Your Scar Revision Provider in Camas & Vancouver, WA

Scar tissue behaves differently from healthy skin, and treating it well takes clinical judgment about depth, timing, and when a scar simply is not ready. Every scar and stretch mark revision session at Body Balance is performed personally by our medical director.

Medical Director & Founder
Alana Berdiyev
DNP, ARNP, FNP-C  ·  Advanced Fotona Laser Medicine Certification

Alana founded Body Balance on a conviction that patients in Camas and Vancouver, WA deserve the same standard of clinical care in an aesthetics setting they'd expect from any medical practice — and as onsite medical director, she is here and hands-on for it.

Scar tissue does not behave like healthy skin. Reading how a given scar will respond — its age, depth, and how the surrounding tissue heals — takes clinical judgment, so Alana performs every revision session herself rather than delegating it.

Her Advanced Fotona Laser Medicine Certification means every plan is built around your skin type, your history, and your goals — not a preset machine program. Her background in surgical, oncology, and women's health nursing informs a conservative, safety-first approach.

Clinical Standards

Your Safety, Our Standard

Choosing where to treat a scar is a medical decision. Scar tissue responds differently than healthy skin, and a history of keloid scarring changes the calculation entirely. Here's how Body Balance approaches that responsibility.

Medical-Grade Fotona Platform

We treat exclusively on the Fotona dual-wavelength (Er:YAG and Nd:YAG) medical laser system — a platform used in dermatology and gynecology worldwide, maintained and calibrated to manufacturer specification. No off-brand devices, no consumer-grade equipment.

Certified Laser Provider, Every Session

Scar and stretch mark revision is performed by Alana Berdiyev, DNP, ARNP, FNP-C — our onsite medical director, who holds an Advanced Fotona Laser Medicine Certification. Never a technician, never a rotating contractor, and never delegated on this treatment.

Skin Type Assessment First

Laser complications most often come from treating the wrong skin type at the wrong setting. We assess your Fitzpatrick skin type, sun exposure history, and medication list before a single pass — and adjust wavelength, fluence, and pulse duration accordingly.

Eye Protection & Safety Protocols

Wavelength-specific protective eyewear is worn by every person in the room, every session, without exception. Our treatment room follows medical laser safety protocols — controlled access, correct signage, and verified device settings before each pass.

Conservative Settings, Built to Escalate

We start at conservative settings and build intensity across your series as your skin demonstrates how it responds. You can always go deeper at the next session — you cannot undo an aggressive first pass.

Emergency Preparedness

Our clinic maintains emergency protocols consistent with best practices for medical aesthetic procedures. Alana's high-acuity hospital background — surgical nursing, oncology, and women's health — brings a depth of patient-management experience to our safety protocols.

Patient Selection

Not Everyone Is a Candidate — And That's the Point

Being selective about who we treat is part of how we practice safely. At every consultation, your provider assesses whether treatment is appropriate right now — not just whether it's possible. A good provider declines when the conditions aren't right. We do.

Pregnancy or breastfeeding
Active infection, open wound, or inflamed skin at the treatment site
Recent sun exposure, sunburn, or active self-tanner on the treatment area
Use of isotretinoin (Accutane) within the past 6–12 months
Photosensitizing medications or a photosensitivity disorder
Active or recurrent cold sores (HSV) in or near the treatment area — antiviral prophylaxis may be needed first
History of keloid scarring, or unrealistic expectations about what one session can achieve

Frequently Asked Questions About Scar Revision in Camas & Vancouver

Yes. Laser scar revision targets scar tissue at multiple depths, breaking down dense collagen bands and stimulating healthier new tissue in their place. Most patients see reduced thickness, faded discoloration, and better blending with surrounding skin across a session series.

Yes, laser revision improves both recent and older scars, though older scars generally need more sessions and improve more gradually. Your provider will estimate a realistic session count based on your scar's age and thickness at consultation.

The same laser technology treats both new red or purple stretch marks and older white or silver ones by stimulating collagen and elastin production, which softens texture and fades discoloration over time. Newer marks generally respond faster and more completely.

Most plans run 3–4 sessions spaced several weeks apart. Larger areas, older scars, and thicker scar tissue often need more. Your provider builds a specific plan based on the scar's size, depth, and age rather than selling a fixed package.

Most patients have minimal downtime, with some redness or mild swelling in the treated area for a day or two. Your provider reviews specific aftercare for your treatment plan before your first session.

No. Laser revision meaningfully improves the appearance of scars and stretch marks — softening texture, blending discoloration, and reducing visibility — but complete removal is not an achievable outcome and we will not promise it. Your provider sets realistic expectations at consultation before you commit.

Yes. Post-pregnancy stretch marks are the most common reason patients book this treatment, and it is safe for most skin types. Newer marks that are still red or purple typically respond faster than older white or silver ones.

Laser scar revision is not appropriate during pregnancy or breastfeeding, over active infection, open wounds, or inflamed skin, on recently sun-exposed or sunburned skin, within 6–12 months of isotretinoin (Accutane) use, or for patients taking photosensitizing medications. Active or recurrent cold sores (HSV) in or near the treatment area may require antiviral prophylaxis before treatment, since laser can trigger an outbreak. A history of keloid scarring also requires careful evaluation. Your provider will review your full medical history and medications at consultation and will decline treatment when the conditions aren't right.

Pricing depends on the size of the treatment area and the number of sessions in your plan. We provide a transparent estimate during your consultation. HSA/FSA eligibility may vary by treatment and should be confirmed with your plan. Cherry financing with 0% APR options for qualifying purchases is available.

"I went to Body Balance for additional Fotona 4 laser treatments after having my initial sessions done by another provider in Portland, and I truly can’t recommend Body Balance enough. They were incredibly thorough—far more so than my initial provider—which made a huge difference in my experience and results. They recommended a few additional treatments, and after discussing them with Alana, I decided to move forward. I am absolutely thrilled with the results. Choosing Body Balance is definitely one of the best decisions I’ve made in a long time, and I highly recommend them."
