Acne Scar Treatment in Hyderabad
Surgical scar revision can change the size of a scar, raise depressed scars or lower elevated scars and improve the appearance of a scar. While a scar’s color cannot be altered, the color will usually fade in time.
A surgical scar revision procedure can be performed in one of two ways: with a scalpel or with lasers. The type of scar and the location on your body will determine which method is best for you.
If you are considering surgical scar revision, be sure to consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon. Your surgeon will be able to assess the type of scar and determine the most appropriate method for treatment.
About scar revision surgery
Scar revision surgery is a procedure that is done to minimize the appearance of scars. The surgery holds the potential to change the size of a scar, raise depressed scars or lower elevated scars and fade the appearance of a scar. While the scar’s color cannot be removed, it will help fade it out with time. Medini cosmetic surgery offers an extensive range of cosmetic surgeries, including scar revision surgery that certified doctors will perform. Dr.M.Shridharan provides the best scar revision surgery in Hyderabad with safe and guaranteed results.
The procedure involves removing the scar and closing the wound with a stitch or stitches. The doctor will then remove any excess tissue that remains above the skin’s surface, leaving you with minimal scarring.
Scar revision surgery may be recommended if:
- You have a large or wide scar that is unsightly or difficult to cover up with makeup
- You have an elevated scar that has not yet matured into its final form
Advantages of scar revision surgery
The procedure can improve the appearance of an existing scar by:
- Improves the texture of the skin.
- Gives a beautified look and appearance.
- Erases the skin abnormalities
Ideal candidates for Acne scar treatment in Hyderabad
The best candidates for acne scar treatment in Hyderabad are those who have had a recent breakout of pimples, cysts, and nodules. This is because their scars will be fresh and active. It is much easier to treat active acne scars than old ones that have been left untreated for years. The ideal candidate also has realistic expectations about what scar revision can achieve.
- People who are bothered by the scar and get uncomfortable or self conscious
- People with a realistic approach towards the scar improvement
- People with no active acne or skin diseases in the areas that are to be treated.
- People who are physically healthy and fit.
- Non-smokers.
Types of Scar
- Keloid scars result from the skin’s overproduction of collagen after a wound has healed. Keloid scars are thick, puckered, itchy clusters of scar tissue that grow beyond the edges of the injury or incision. They are often red or darker in colour than the surrounding skin.
- Hypertrophic scars, unlike keloids, do not grow out of the boundaries of the scar area, but because of their thick, raised texture, they can be unsightly. They may also restrict the natural movement of muscles and tendons.
- Spread scars are widened, and the skin is thinned.
- Contracture scars are the most severe scar forms and usually occur due to a loss of a large skin area. Contracture scars are most commonly found in patients that have experienced burn injuries.
At First Consultation
During the initial consultation, you must provide a complete medical history, including information about previous surgical procedures, past and present medical conditions, and any medications or herbal supplements you take. Your surgeon will conduct a complete physical examination to discuss the possible risks and complications of the procedure. You can make a classified decision and develop the best action plan.
Procedure
Surgical Scar Revision:
During surgical scar revision, a scar is removed, and the surrounding healthy skin is joined less conspicuously. Wide scars can often be excised and closed, resulting in a narrower, less noticeable scar; similarly, long scars can be shortened.
Z-Plasty :
Z-plastic is a surgical technique most commonly used to change the direction of a scar and, therefore, make the scar less visible. Scars in facial expression lines tend to be less visible than scars that cross these lines. The Z-plasty is used to put these scars in facial expression lines.
Steroid Applications and Injections :
Steroids can help flatten and reduce the redness of hypertrophic and keloid scars. Steroids are applied or injected into the scar. This is especially effective on hypertrophic and keloid scars and helps to reduce the itching and pain associated with these scars.
Silicone Gel Sheets :
Silicone gel sheets can help flatten hypertrophic and keloid scars. These transparent sheets are placed on the scar and worn 24 hours daily.
Dermabrasion :
Dermabrasionsmoothes out surface irregularities such as deep lines or scars by removing the topmost layers of the skin.
Tissue Expansion :
In this procedure, a “balloon” is inserted under a patch of healthy skin near a scar. The balloon is filled with a saline solution to stretch the skin. The balloon is removed when the skin has been adequately stretched, which can take several weeks or months. The scar is surgically removed, and the balloon-stretched skin is pulled over the previously scarred area and carefully closed.
Collagen Injections :
Collagen Injections are used to rise or fill in sunken scars.
Laser Skin Resurfacing :
Two types of lasers are used to reduce the uneven surface of scars: the CO2 Laser and the Erbium: YAG Laser. The CO2 laser is typically used for deeper scars, while the Erbium is used for superficial scars and deeper skin tones. Both lasers remove the topmost layers of skin, allowing new, smooth skin to form.
