SCAR REVISION

What is Scar Revision?

Scar revision is a specialized procedure designed to improve the appearance and texture of scars. Dr. Park will carefully evaluate your unique scar to determine the most effective treatment plan. This may involve a combination of surgical and non-surgical techniques, such as:

  • Surgical Scar Revision: This involves precisely removing and re-positioning scar tissue to minimize its visibility. Techniques like Z-plasty or W-plasty can be used to break up the scar's appearance.

  • Laser Resurfacing: Advanced laser technology can help reduce the redness, texture, and depth of scars.

  • Dermal Fillers: In some cases, dermal fillers can be injected to soften the appearance of indented scars.

  • Microneedling: This minimally invasive treatment stimulates collagen production to improve scar texture.

Benefits of Scar Revision

  • Improved appearance: Scar revision can significantly reduce the visibility of scars, enhancing your overall appearance.

  • Boosted confidence: Feeling confident in your skin can positively impact your self-esteem and overall well-being.

  • Enhanced comfort: Raised or textured scars can cause discomfort or irritation. Scar revision can alleviate these issues.

Ideal Candidates for Scar Revision

Ideal candidates for scar revision are individuals with:

  • Scars that are raised, depressed, or discolored

  • Scars that limit mobility or cause discomfort

  • A desire to improve the appearance of existing scars

Every scar is unique. During your consultation, Dr. Park will assess your specific concerns and develop a personalized treatment plan to help you achieve your desired results.
