Scar revision is a procedure designed to make scars appear less noticeable by improving their appearance. This service can treat various types of scars, including those from surgeries, injuries, burns, and acne. The process involves removing or altering the scar tissue using techniques such as excision, skin grafting, laser therapy, or dermabrasion. Scars are minimized and blended with the surrounding skin using a customized approach based on their size, type, and location.

A good candidate for scar revision is someone with a visible scar they wish to improve, in good health, and realistic expectations about the results.
Following the procedure, a noticeable improvement can usually be seen within a few weeks, with improvement continuing for several months afterward as the skin heals.
The results are long-lasting, but their longevity depends on the scar type and post-procedure care.
Aside from temporary swelling, redness, and discomfort at the treatment site, downtime varies depending on the treatment method used.
Before the treatment, follow your practitioner’s instructions. After the treatment, keep the treated area clean, avoid direct sunlight, and follow any post-procedure care guidelines to ensure optimal healing.
During the treatment, your practitioner will use the most appropriate technique to minimize the scar’s appearance. The procedure’s duration and method will depend on the scar’s size, type, and location.
