Scars Corrections

The target group:

Every wound heals by scar which can be often aesthetically unsatisfying, painful, itchy, or restricts movement. Patients often use aesthetic surgery when they have scars on visible spots on face, hands or neck. It's not possible to remove scars completely but we can modify their shape and appearance.

When is the best time for the procedure?

In case of scars correction there isn't any age limitation but you should consider psychic maturity of the patient. Patient should decide to undergo the procedure when he/she is not satisfied with his/her appearance and aesthetic surgery is able to help him/her. Before the surgery it's necessary to consult with your doctor to decide upon the method of correction of scars.

Types of scars and method for their correction:

• Bulging scars / keloids / - can be corrected by injecting Diprophos. 3 injections every three weeks are usually enough. Scars get to the level of the skin and redness subsides.
• Sunken scars - correction is possible by applying a filling material. It is applied with a needle and the spot is anesthetized by a special gel.
• Extended or posttraumatic scars - these corrections are performed by surgical removal of the original scar. Special plastic stitch reducts and narrows the original scar.

Duration of the procedure: depends on the size of the scar, but approx. 30-60 minutes

Anesthesia: The procedure is performed in local anesthesia.
