Scars are more than just marks on the skin. For many people, they are constant reminders of past injuries, surgeries, or acne struggles, and they can affect daily comfort. At Premier Derm Center, we believe you should not have to live with skin that makes you feel uncomfortable or self-conscious.
Under the care of board-certified dermatologist Dr. Khanh “Connie” Nguyen, our clinic provides advanced, medical-grade scar treatment in Houston, TX. Whether you have raised keloid scars, deep acne scars, or uneven or discolored surgical scars, our experienced team offers personalized treatments.
“Insurance would not cover Vbeam or PicoWay.”
How Scars Form
A scar is the body’s natural way of healing after the skin is injured. When the deeper layer of skin is damaged, the body creates collagen to repair the area. Because the body works quickly to close the wound and protect it from infection, the new skin that forms often appears and feels different from the surrounding skin.
Advanced Scar Treatment Options We Offer in Houston, TX
We never use a one-size-fits-all approach for treating scars at our Houston clinic. Dr. Nguyen uses advanced lasers and proven dermatology treatments to achieve the best results for each patient.
Vbeam® Prima
If your scar looks red or pink, it is usually caused by extra blood vessels. The Vbeam® Prima laser targets these vessels with gentle pulses of light, helping them fade without harming nearby skin. It works especially well for new surgical scars and raised red scars, allowing them to better match your natural skin tone.
PicoWay® Laser
For scars that appear brown or dark, known as hyperpigmentation, the PicoWay® laser is highly effective. It uses ultra-fast energy pulses to break pigment into tiny particles that the body naturally clears away. Because it uses very little heat, it is safe for most skin tones, including darker skin.
Intralesional Injections
Thick, raised scars and keloids often need more than creams. Dr. Nguyen may inject medication directly into the scar to reduce inflammation and excess collagen. This helps flatten the scar and relieve itching or discomfort.
Medical-Grade Anti-Scar Gels
Treatment continues at home with silicone-based anti-scar gels. These help hydrate the skin, control collagen buildup, and improve healing. When used consistently, they can greatly improve your final results.

What People Say About Us
Based on Google Reviews
I have been a patient of Dr Nguyen for 17 years. She is by far the best dermatologist in Houston. She takes her time and is never rushed. She provides detailed, understandable explanations for her diagnoses and treatment plans. She has taken care of my children’s skin care needs from elementary school and continuing into adulthood.

Dr. N is very kind and reassuring. I love conversing with her. She really knows her stuff too. She has made such a difference in my rosacea. I look at old pictures and I am amazed at how much better my skin looks now. Staff is also very professional. I highly recommend her. I drive all the way from Clear Lake City to see her.

Dr. Nguyen is the kind of dermatologist who can make even a conversation about a sebaceous cyst feel completely normal — and dare I say, educational. She was kind, quick, and incredibly knowledgeable. I came in with a couple of mysterious moles and one rebellious cyst, and she handled all three with the calm precision of someone who’s clearly seen worse.

Dr Nguyen is wonderful. She has spent hours helping me with a multitude of things. Shingles being one. She is willing to try new methods that helped me tremendously. Her kindness and dedication are a testament to her. I feel safe with her. She also, is doing hair treatments on me that are working miracles for my hair. And many other cosmetic procedures too. I’m so glad I found her ❤️

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you completely remove a scar?
Scars usually aren’t completely removable. However, our treatments can greatly improve their color, texture, and thickness. They blend more naturally with the surrounding skin after treatment.
Are these treatments safe for all skin tones?
Yes. We use specialized laser settings and treatments, such as RF microneedling, that are safe for warmer skin tones and reduce the risk of darkening or pigmentation.
Can you treat old scars, or do they have to be new?
It’s never too late. While newer scars often improve more quickly once healed, even scars that are many years old are treatable with advanced laser resurfacing.
Will the scar come back after treatment?
In most cases, no. Once scar tissue is improved, the results are long-lasting. However, keloid scars can be stubborn, and we manage this risk with proper follow-up care.
