What is

Scar Revision

Your body forms scars after an accident or surgery as a way to heal lost or damaged skin. However, scars can often be itchy, painful, tight or thick, limiting your movement. That’s when scar revision treatment can help. In addition to improving the appearance of a scar, revision treatment can reduce pain and make the surrounding skin softer and more elastic.

The goal of scar revision is to help your scar more closely match the color and texture of your surrounding skin. But it won’t completely eliminate your scar. Scar revision is usually cosmetic, but sometimes, severe scars are painful or make it hard for your body to function. These scars need medical treatment.

Are there different types of scars?

There are many types of scars. They can be thick and raised (hypertrophic scars) or excessively large and lumpy (keloid scars). They may also be flat, discolored or depressed (sunken beneath the surface of your skin). The type, location and cause of your scar are important factors in determining the right scar revision treatment for you.

Treatments

for Scarring

  • Chemical peel: A healthcare provider applies a chemical solution (usually a type of acid) to your skin. Chemical peels are best for mild scars, usually on your face.
  • Dermaplaning: A healthcare provider uses a special razor to shave away the upper layers of your skin. Dermaplaning can help improve the appearance of acne scars.
  • Light or laser therapy: These treatments use light or heat to trigger skin cell turnover. Laser skin resurfacing can reduce irritation from scars and help scars return to a normal skin color.
  • Skin bleaching: Substances that lighten the skin may reduce the appearance of scars.
  • Microneedling: A healthcare provider uses a device to create microscopic punctures in your skin, which encourages remodeling and improves scar appearance.
  • Exosome treatment: New smart growth factor are applied to the skin during a a microneedling process. Small channels are created across the surface of the scar to drive exosomes to the damaged scar tissue and accelerate healing and tissue repair.
