What is scar revision and removal?

Scar revision and removal are treatments designed to lessen the appearance of scars on the skin that have occurred in the past. There are several different methodologies that may be recommended for patients. When Dr. Tony Adar evaluates patients to determine the type of scar present and the best solution for removal, he will suggest the technique that will be used to get the desired results for patients! The type, location, and size of the scar will be considered when making these recommendations.

Can I completely remove my scar?

Scar revision is the best way to reduce the overall appearance and disfigurement caused by a scar that developed over time. Still, it is almost impossible to completely remove a scar. We talk to our patients about having realistic expectations about what can be achieved with this treatment.

When can scar revision and removal be performed?

Scars that have been present for at least one year, which ensures full maturity, are often best for this particular surgical treatment. This will improve the chances of the best results for reducing or removing the scar with the surgical solutions available at Ginsburg Dermatology Center.
