Why Have A Scar Revision?
Scar Revision attempts to reduce and minimize a scar, so that it blends in with the surrounding skin and is less conspicuous. Scar revision aims to correct the size, shape, colouration and elevation of unsightly blemishes, so that as far as possible, normal appearance is restored.
The way a scar develops depends as much on how the patient's body heals as it does on the original injury or on the surgeon's skills. Many variables can affect the severity of scarring, including the size and depth of the wound, the blood supply to the area, the thickness and color of the skin, and the direction of the scar.
