Scar Revision

In addition to immediate care, we also specialize in scar revision techniques to improve the appearance of older, poorly healed lacerations. Whether your goal is to address an acute injury or refine a longstanding scar, we are committed to restoring form and function with a refined aesthetic approach. Scar revision is a surgical procedure designed to improve the appearance of scars, whether from injury, surgery, or other causes. The goal of scar revision is not necessarily to remove the scar entirely but to make it less noticeable by improving its size, shape, and texture. The procedure is highly individualized, based on the location, size, and type of scar. Scar revision can help restore the skin’s natural appearance, reduce discomfort, and improve confidence. Patients experience a smoother, less prominent scar once healed.

Key Benefits of Scar Revision

Scar revision helps soften and minimize the appearance of scars, blending them more naturally into surrounding skin. Techniques are chosen based on scar type and location to improve texture, smoothness, and symmetry. The result is a more refined, confident look that feels natural, not obvious or surgical.

Recovery After Scar Revision

Recovery varies depending on the scar and technique used, but most patients experience mild swelling or redness that fades with time. Keeping the area protected from sun exposure and following proper wound care is key to a good result. Avoid stretching or stressing the treated area until fully healed. Results continue improving over weeks to months as the scar remodels and skin settles.
