Scars are skin correction that is made because of: an injury, sickness, or a surgery. The more severe the damage is, the more transparent the scar will be.
The scars fade in time depending on: the severity of the injury, the place where the injury is on the body, genetics, skin, and the age of the patient.
Scar Cosmetic Surgery Procedure:
There are different ways to remove scars.
- Scar Removal Surgery: useful for wide large scars, the skin around the scar is taken out and a new skin graft is being placed.
- Laser Scar Removal: takes off the upper layer of the skin so the scar fades.
- Steroids Injections: make the scars shrink.
- Silicon Patches: The patches sticks on the scars for a few month and help the scar to shrink and fade.
- Chemical Peeling to Remove Scars: There is a variety of chemical peeling some stronger and require recovery time and some are weaker and used for surface scars.
