Palm Beach Gardens, FL, is home to Gardens Dermatology & Cosmetic Surgery Center, where four medical doctors tackle challenging scar revisions, skin conditions, and cosmetic procedures for adults and children, getting highly successful outcomes. One skin issue we frequently see is scarring, and we are here today to discuss the many forms of scar revisions. 

Scar Revisions

If you attempt to use OTC products to eliminate or hide a scar with makeup but have yet to find a successful home treatment option, please call us today! We may have the option you have been looking for to remove your scar.

Gardens Dermatology & Cosmetic Surgery Center in Palm Beach Gardens, FL, explains that scar revision is a procedure that reduces the appearance or tightness of a scar. We have options to provide you with the best technique, such as surgical or topical medications. 

While no option removes the scar entirely, we can help your scar blend into your skin better, making it significantly less noticeable depending on the extent of your scarring.

Scars can form as thick raised areas, be lumpy, flat, discolored, or sink beneath the skin surface. Severe scars cause pain and loss of function, requiring medical treatment. We must examine your scar to determine if you are a candidate for a revision, as not all patients are good candidates. If you develop a scar from the following, you may be a candidate for a revision of your scar.

• Acne
• Burns
• Cleft lip
• C-Sections
• Reconstructive surgery
• Piercings
• Skin infections
• Traumatic injuries

Each revision technique has pros and cons, like everything else. We will review these pros and cons with you so you can make an informed decision. Scar revisions carry many more pros than cons.

Some options we provide are injectables, skin resurfacing, topicals, and surgery. Each option may have several different techniques. We determine which option fits your needs better. 

Revisions take time to heal, and sometimes the scar has to be allowed to mature before it can be treated.
