Scarring can often make men feel self-conscious especially if
it is on a visible part of the body. Scars may be the result of an accident, injury
or from a previous surgical procedure. While scar revision can help improve the
appearance of a scar, it cannot remove the scar entirely.
There are different options available to treat scars. Your specialist will go through
all the methods available, discuss their relative advantages and disadvantages as
well as recommend the best procedure for you. It may be necessary to use a combination
of techniques to achieve the best result.
The options available include laser therapy, dermabrasion, shaving the scar down
to the level of the skin, an operation to lift a depressed scar, or treatment using
injectable fillers. You could also have your scar cut and re-stitched so that it
becomes less noticeable. Contracted skin can also be lengthened to increase movement
around the scar.
It is usually possible to make scarring less noticeable but you must be realistic
in your expectations of the treatment. It is not possible to remove a scar - only
improve its appearance. Your surgeon will discuss your expectations with you and
help you decide on the best treatment.
