Scar Surgery
Whether caused by injury, previous surgery or skin conditions, scars can be significantly improved through carefully planned scar revision techniques. While no treatment can make a scar completely disappear, modern non-surgical and surgical techniques can significantly refine the appearance, making it less noticeable and more harmonious with the surrounding skin.
Surgery for scars involves carefully assessing the scar type, location and skin characteristics, before deciding on the right approach. This could be surgical scar revision, resurfacing, fat transfer, or adjunctive therapies such as steroid injections or laser treatments, depending on your specific needs and goals.
