About Chrysalis Skin & Scar?
Chrysalis Skin & Scar was established to help patients experiencing lasting changes to their skin following surgery, injury, cancer treatment, acne, burns, and other conditions.
Unlike practices that focus on a single treatment, Chrysalis combines multiple approaches to skin and scar care. These may include laser treatments, radiofrequency, microneedling, biologic support, and paramedical camouflage.
The practice operates through three specialized Centers of Excellence:
Scar Revision & Management
Birthmark Treatment
Hair Restoration
In addition, Chrysalis offers advanced aesthetic treatments for skin tightening, skin rejuvenation, texture improvement, pigmentation, and body contouring.
Treatment recommendations are based on the patient's medical history, skin type, tissue condition, and individual goals.
The Founding Story and Clinical Background
Chrysalis Skin & Scar was founded by sisters Teresa Gaither and Mischelle Johnson, whose professional experience in wound care and personal experiences with healing shaped the practice's mission.
Their background includes Athena Specialty Group, a wound care organization established in 2018. Years of working with complex wounds and tissue repair contributed to their understanding of scar formation, collagen remodeling, and the challenges patients may face after an injury or surgical procedure.
The creation of Chrysalis was also influenced by Mischelle Johnson's experience as a breast cancer survivor.
Following a radical mastectomy, multiple reconstruction procedures, and significant scarring, Mischelle experienced firsthand the emotional and physical challenges that can remain after cancer treatment.
Her journey highlighted a gap between medical recovery, scar improvement, and visual reconstruction.
Chrysalis was developed to help connect these stages of care, giving patients access to clinical evaluation, advanced technologies, and supportive treatments within one practice.
What Makes Chrysalis Skin & Scar Different?
Chrysalis Skin & Scar is different because it brings several highly specialized areas of care into one medically supervised paramedical clinic. Its focus extends beyond scar revision to include hair restoration, scalp health, vascular concerns, birthmarks, pigmentation changes, and supportive care during different stages of healing. Rather than offering isolated treatments, the clinic develops individualized plans based on the condition being treated, tissue behavior, skin type, healing history, and the patient’s long term goals.
For scar patients, this may include support beginning early in the healing process, followed by laser scar treatment, Laser Coring, radiofrequency, microneedling, biologics, lymphatic care, and paramedical camouflage once the tissue is ready. For patients experiencing hair thinning or scalp concerns, treatment plans may incorporate PRP, amniotic or placental tissue products, mesotherapy, microneedling, radiofrequency, and professional scalp care. Chrysalis Skin & Scar also treats vascular lesions, birthmarks, and visible pigmentation concerns using technology selected according to the color, depth, location, and clinical characteristics of the area.
The clinic’s experience with biologics is rooted in its wound care background. Since 2018, the team has worked with biologic products and energy based devices through its broader wound care organization, giving Chrysalis a deeper understanding of tissue repair, collagen remodeling, inflammation, and healing. Depending on the patient’s needs, PRP and amniotic or placental tissue products may be incorporated into scar or hair restoration plans to support tissue quality and address areas of deficit.
Chrysalis Skin & Scar also emphasizes inclusive care across all Fitzpatrick skin types. Treatment planning considers skin tone, pigmentation risk, scar color, tissue response, vascular characteristics, and previous healing complications. This allows the clinic to approach scars, hair loss, birthmarks, and pigmentation concerns with the same central philosophy: medically informed care that supports meaningful transformation throughout the patient’s journey.

Chrysalis Skin & Scar Locations in Arizona
Chrysalis Skin & Scar serves patients from two Arizona locations, providing access to clinical skin treatments, scar care, and aesthetic services.
Gilbert, Arizona
Address: 3875 E Williams Field Rd., Suite 106, Gilbert, AZ 85295
The Gilbert location serves individuals seeking scar revision, hair restoration, birthmark treatment, and advanced skin care. Patients can schedule consultations to discuss treatment options and receive recommendations based on their concerns.
Chandler, Arizona
Address: 4913 S Alma School Rd #1, Chandler, AZ 85248
The Chandler location expands access to Chrysalis Skin & Scar services, including advanced aesthetic treatments and selected scar and skin technologies.
Patients should confirm individual treatment availability when scheduling, as certain technologies and services may differ between locations.
Chrysalis Skin & Scar Locations in Arizona
The practice organizes its specialized clinical services into three Centers of Excellence.
Scar Revision & Management
The Scar Revision & Management Center focuses on improving the appearance, texture, thickness, flexibility, and overall quality of scar tissue.
Chrysalis evaluates both recent and established scars, including:
Surgical and plastic surgery scars
C section scars
Mastectomy and breast reconstruction scars
Post Mohs surgery scars
Acne scars
Burn scars
Traumatic and injury related scars
Hypertrophic scars and keloids
Scars with hyperpigmentation or pigment loss
Self harm scars
Radiation related skin changes
Depending on the characteristics of the scar, treatment may involve laser resurfacing, Laser Coring, microneedling, radiofrequency, biologic therapies, or paramedical camouflage.
The goal is to improve scar characteristics while maintaining realistic expectations. Scar revision may reduce visibility and improve tissue quality, but it does not guarantee complete scar removal.
Explore Scar Revision & Management
Birthmark Treatment
The Birthmark Treatment Center evaluates vascular and pigmented birthmarks, including concerns involving visible redness, discoloration, or irregular blood vessels.
Conditions evaluated may include:
Port wine stains
Hemangiomas
Vascular lesions
Café au lait spots
Nevus of Ota
Vascular discoloration
Selected pigmentation concerns
Treatment selection depends on the type of birthmark, its depth and location, skin tone, and other clinical characteristics.
Laser technology may be recommended for selected vascular or pigmented conditions. Not all birthmarks respond to the same technology, and some require medical assessment before treatment.
Hair Restoration
The Hair Restoration Center evaluates hair thinning, shedding, scalp conditions, and concerns affecting hair density.
Chrysalis addresses hair concerns associated with:
Female pattern hair loss
Perimenopause and menopause
Significant or rapid weight loss
Hormonal changes
Traction alopecia
Scarring alopecia
Selected inflammatory scalp conditions
Eyebrow thinning
Scalp buildup and dryness
Treatment planning may include platelet rich plasma (PRP), microneedling, radiofrequency treatments, professional scalp care, and selected biologic therapies when appropriate.
The practice evaluates factors contributing to hair loss before recommending treatment. Scalp cleansing may support scalp health, but it does not replace medical evaluation when shedding or thinning has an underlying cause.
Scar Revision and Laser Scar Treatment
Scar revision at Chrysalis Skin & Scar focuses on modifying scar characteristics through clinically selected treatment methods.
Scar tissue differs from normal skin in its structure, texture, flexibility, and collagen organization. Some scars are raised and firm, while others appear depressed, discolored, or restricted.
A comprehensive scar evaluation considers:
Scar type and age
Depth and thickness
Texture and pigmentation
Location and surrounding tissue
Skin type and healing response
Previous treatments
Sensitivity and functional concerns
UltraClear is a fractional fiber laser used for selected scar revision and skin resurfacing treatments.
It delivers controlled laser energy to targeted tissue and may support collagen remodeling, smoother texture, and improvement in visible scar irregularities.
Depending on the scar, UltraClear may be considered for surgical scars, acne scars, traumatic scars, and selected raised or discolored scars.
UltraClear Laser for Scar Revision
Laser Coring is a specialized approach used in selected scar revision plans to address dense, raised, or thickened scar tissue.
The treatment creates controlled microscopic channels within the targeted tissue to support remodeling.
At Chrysalis, Laser Coring may be considered when scar characteristics warrant a more targeted intervention. Treatment suitability depends on the scar's structure, location, and healing history.
Laser Coring for Thickened Scar Tissue
Microneedling for Scars
Microneedling uses controlled microchannels in the skin to stimulate a tissue remodeling response.
It may help improve the appearance of selected acne scars, surgical scars, and irregular skin texture.
Depending on the scar's characteristics, microneedling may be used independently or as part of a broader treatment plan.
Radiofrequency for Scar Tissue
Radiofrequency treatments deliver controlled energy to targeted tissue to support remodeling.
At Chrysalis, radiofrequency may be incorporated into scar revision plans when concerns include firmness, uneven texture, tightness, or reduced tissue flexibility.
The appropriate approach depends on the scar type, treatment area, and surrounding skin.
Chrysalis Skin & Scar offers paramedical tattooing to help improve visible differences in skin pigmentation following surgery, injury, or other tissue changes.
Unlike decorative tattooing, paramedical camouflage focuses on blending pigment differences and improving the appearance of selected areas of skin.
Applications may include:
Scar camouflage
Pigment restoration
Visual reconstruction following breast surgery
Selected scalp pigmentation concerns
Paramedical tattooing may be considered after the tissue has healed sufficiently and has been evaluated for treatment.
In some cases, laser treatment or other scar revision procedures may be recommended before camouflage to improve the condition of the underlying tissue.
Paramedical Tattooing and Scar Camouflage
In addition to its specialized Centers of Excellence, Chrysalis Skin & Scar offers advanced aesthetic treatments for patients interested in improving skin quality, firmness, pigmentation, and body contours.
These services do not require a patient to have a scar or medical skin condition.
Aesthetic concerns addressed may include:
Skin laxity and reduced firmness
Fine lines and wrinkles
Uneven skin texture
Sun damage and brown spots
Facial discoloration
Stretch marks
Cellulite and body contour concerns
Changes in skin quality following weight loss
Treatment options may include laser resurfacing, radiofrequency skin tightening, microneedling, body contouring, and other technologies selected according to the patient's goals.

Treatment Planning for Different Skin Tones
Chrysalis Skin & Scar evaluates patients across all Fitzpatrick skin types, including patients with darker skin tones.
Skin tone can influence how tissue responds to laser energy, microneedling, radiofrequency, and pigmentation treatments.
A comprehensive consultation considers:
Natural skin pigmentation
Risk of post inflammatory hyperpigmentation
Previous healing complications
Scar color and thickness
Treatment history
Individual skin sensitivity
Providers select treatment approaches and settings based on these factors.
Although advanced technologies may be appropriate for many skin tones, results and risks vary by patient. No single treatment is equally suitable for every skin type or condition.
The Chrysalis Skin & Scar Consultation Process
A consultation at Chrysalis Skin & Scar begins with a comprehensive assessment of the patient's primary concern.
The provider reviews medical history, previous treatments, skin or scalp condition, healing response, and desired outcomes.
Clinical Evaluation
The first step is understanding the concern, including its history, severity, and effect on the surrounding tissue.
For scar patients, this may involve evaluating thickness, texture, pigmentation, and flexibility. For hair restoration, the assessment may focus on thinning patterns, scalp condition, and possible contributing factors.
Individualized Treatment Recommendations
After the evaluation, the provider discusses appropriate treatment options.
Depending on the concern, recommendations may include laser treatment, radiofrequency, microneedling, scalp care, biologic therapies, or paramedical camouflage.
Some conditions may benefit from a combination of treatment methods, while others may require a more conservative approach.
Treatment and Follow Up
Patients receive guidance on treatment expectations, recovery considerations, and follow up care.
Progress may be assessed over time, and recommendations can be adjusted according to the patient's response.
