- What Is Face Scar Revision Surgery (Facial Scar Revision)?

Scar revision or Scar removal is a procedure that aims to reduce the appearance of the scars and it also aims to prevent scars from recurring like red keloid scars, raised scars and also hypertrophic scars.

Facial scar revision corrects skin changes caused by wounds, previous surgeries, acne or other skin diseases or caused by injuries such as burns or acid attacks or facial trauma. Scar Revision procedures also assist restore the function, by reducing skin & soft tissue contractures..

- What Is The Process Scar Revision Treatment?

The scar removal is done under general anesthesia for cases that are extreme, but generally the scar revision can also be done under local anesthesia. It is an individualized treatment protocol which is followed for each patient, depending on the location, the age, the extent & the contour of the scar. Generally, elevated scars are treated with fractional co2 laser treatment / skin laser resurfacing, while depressed scars need to be treated with reconstructive surgery first, to revise the scar and then laser may be used to cause scar remodeling. Keloids and hypertrophic scars have to usually be treated conservatively, with a combination of skin treatments, occlusion therapy and skin lasers, surgery is best avoided in these conditions. To flatten raised scars, steroid injections may also be used.

The process of scar laser resurfacing involves the use of multiple sessions of Carbon Dioxide laser (CO2 Laser) skin resurfacing. This fractional co2 laser treatment is currently considered the gold standard of scar therapy. This laser moves along your scar to remove a layer of skin and to expose a new layer of underlying normal skin, which will minimize the appearance of the scar as it heals. Lasers like Fraxel & fractional Carbon dioxide laser also work on stimulating the production of new collagen, that corrects the scar area inside out.

- Recovery After Scar Removal Surgery

As you heal, always keep in mind that there is no scar that can be completely removed; the degree of the improvement of the scar also depends on some factors like the direction of the scar, the size of the scar, the quality and nature of your skin and of course how well you take care of the wound after the operation or the laser procedure. Don't panic if your scars look worse at first, the result of the surgery may not be that apparent for a year or two.

For some types of scar revision, light dressing & silicone occlusion patches are applied. After 5 days, stitches in the facial area (for scar revision surgery) are removed.
