Scar Revision :
Thickened and widened scars can lead to an unsightly appearance and occasionally a tight band limiting movement. Scar revision usually required the excision of the old scar and allowing the wound healing process to start afreash. This provide a second chance for the scar to heal in a better controlled environment. Unfortunately, scarring is permanent and can never be completely eliminated.
