Scar revision can be accomplished with a number of different procedures and techniques which are designed to camouflage a scar in order to make it less conspicuous. Some scar revision procedures include laser treatment, dermabrasion, steroid injection, skin flap surgery, z-plasty, graft surgery, and surgical removal of a scar. Potential candidates for this procedure include men and women who are in good health, have realistic expectations, and are looking to improve the appearance of a scar. It’s important that patients understand that while scar revision can minimize the appearance of a scar, the scar often cannot be entirely removed.
