Scar Revision
Scars—whether caused by accidents or surgeries—are often unpredictable. How a scar evolves depends on several factors, including your body’s natural healing process, the type and depth of the wound, its size and direction, the blood supply in the affected area, the thickness and color of your skin, and the skill of the surgeon. However, the most important factor is how you feel about the appearance of your scar.
Procedure
Laser scar treatment is non-painful and involves moving a specialized laser light across the scar to reduce damage in the outer layers of the epidermis and smooth skin irregularities. Over time, this process gradually improves or removes the appearance of scars by promoting the renewal of the skin’s surface layers.
The number of sessions required depends on how long the scar has been present. Most patients need between five and eight treatments to achieve optimal results.
Recovery
After any skin-related procedure, patients are advised to use strict sun protection with SPF 50 and, whenever possible, avoid direct sun exposure. Your physician may also provide personalized post-treatment recommendations to ensure the best healing and cosmetic results.
