Scar revision surgery is done as an attempt to minimize a scar so that it is less visible and blends in with the normal skin tone and texture. Scars are visible signs that remain after a wound has healed, whereas some scars are obtained after surgery while others are permanent marks on the skin. Whatever be it, they are the unavoidable results of injury or surgery, and their development can be unpredictable.
Sometimes poor healing may contribute to scars that are obvious, unsightly or disfiguring. Even a wound that heals well can result in a scar that affects the appearance.
Scars are often noticeable due to the size, shape, and location, thus, the treatment options may vary based on the type and degree of scarring and can include:
It is important to note that scar revision can provide a more pleasing cosmetic result or may often improve a scar that has healed poorly, but permanent scars cannot be completely erased.
How is the healing process?
The initial healing phase of a surgical scar revision includes localized swelling, discoloration & discomfort and it may take up to 1 to 2 weeks. Healing will continue for several weeks and as the new scar heals it will slowly refine and fade.
Are the results long-lasting?
The final results of the scar revision surgery will be long-lasting, but it may take several months for the results to become apparent and the scar to fully heal and fade.
What are the scar treatment options?
The type of treatment options will vary depending on the scar and it may be possible that a single treatment will provide satisfactory results, or the patient may need several treatments to minimize the scar’s appearance.
