What to do if scars become hard

Scar repair is the repair of scars after various surgeries. Scar repair after surgery is a surgery to make up for the defects to the greatest extent possible and restore the patient's confidence. Although postoperative scar repair is a very effective repair surgery, it must also follow certain principles.

1. Z-shaped plastic surgery to remove postoperative scars:

If the wound itself is under too much tension, the scar will become wider or even bulge. Therefore, eye plastic surgery experts will perform Z-shaped plastic surgery according to the direction of muscle action to change the direction of the scar.

2. Injection method to remove postoperative scars:

If the scars begin to itch, hurt, or gradually thicken, you can inject hormones into the scars, about once a month. There will generally be no side effects, except that some women may experience irregular menstrual cycles after the injection.

3. Microdermabrasion surgery to remove postoperative scars:

If there are multiple small sunken scars, such as acne scars, laser or mechanical dermabrasion can be used to smooth them out, but this is not applicable to raised hypertrophic scars.

4. Compression method to remove postoperative scars:

If the newly formed scars can be compressed for a long time, they can mature early. This is why I use adhesive tape or silicone sheets on new scars in clinical practice.

For those who are worried about being troubled by scars after surgery, it is better to go to a regular institution for treatment as soon as possible, so that they can better maintain their beauty and reduce the burden of their image.
