It is possible to minimize scars during scar revision surgery so that they are less noticeable and blend in more smoothly with the surrounding skin tone and texture. A scar is a visible mark left behind after a wound has healed. There is a possibility that scars may be visible, unsightly, or disfiguring due to poor healing of the wound.
We will recommend you the combination of scar revision treatments that are most appropriate for you. There are different types of scar removal techniques depending on the location, size, and type of scarring. Some cases require only one procedure, while others require multiple procedures.
Surgical incisions are sometimes needed to remove old, deep scars, and these incisions are then closed after the surgery. A scar cannot be completely erased, although scar revision can make a scar more pleasing cosmetically or improve a scar that has healed poorly.
Scar Revision Procedure
A topical treatment, such as gels, tapes, or external compression, can help heal wounds or reduce skin pigmentation irregularities.
There are also injectable treatments available. The use of dermal filler can be helpful for filling scars that are concave or depressed. It may take three months to several years for results to appear depending on the injectable substance used and your scar condition. It is necessary to repeat therapy in order to maintain results.
Most often, surface treatments are used to improve scars cosmetically. The treatments involve the mechanical removal of the top layers of skin or the altering of the tissue’s nature.
Layered closure treatment is often used if the excision extends below the skin surface or in areas that move frequently. Scar revision techniques that are considered advanced include complicated flap closures and W-plasty or Z-plasty procedures.
