Options that can be used to get rid the scars of old wounds:
- Removal of scars with a laser, where the outer layers of the skin are removed or collagen production is stimulated without removing the skin layers.
- Peeling the skin using a device that repairs the outer layers of the skin
- Micro-needling to make superficial holes in the skin and stimulate collagen production at the site of the scar
- Cryosurgery that freezes the scar, reduces its size and hides its color
- Making a graft for the skin from another part of the body, where it is placed at the site of the scar
- Surgical removal of the scar
- Steroid injections that work to flatten the scar, and therefore used in hypertrophic scars
- Filler injections that raise the layers of the skin to the natural level, and thus are useful in sunken scars
How is the diagnosis made:
- The diagnosis is made through a clinical examination of the scar area by a plastic surgeon
Factors affecting the appearance of scars :
- The genetic factor
- skin colour
- Age
- The size and depth of the wound
- The body's ability to heal
- The time period of the scar
Our advice:
- Consult a plastic surgeon or a dermatologist to assess your condition
