How to treat heart surgery scars?

Heart problem is a disease problem that has a very big impact in modern life. It has a fatal impact on the health of countless people. Therefore, for heart problems, a strategy of quick treatment is generally adopted to prevent procrastination. Surgery is the only way to completely eliminate heart disease, but it will leave large scars on the body and have a great impact on the patient's appearance. Let's take a look at how to deal with heart surgery scars?

Heart surgery scars are usually located in the middle of the chest, from the upper to the lower part of the sternum, and are generally about 20 cm long. The characteristics of scars are that the upper and lower ends are relatively wide, while the middle section is relatively narrow, and the hyperplasia is more obvious at the upper and lower ends. Scars from heart surgery not only affect the appearance, but also cause discomfort such as itching, tingling, and burning in the affected area due to long-term friction from clothes, and may even cause functional disorders and affect breathing.

When removing scars after thoracotomy, you must not be blind or make subjective assumptions. You must go to a regular scar repair center and receive targeted treatment from a professional doctor! The principle of treatment for cardiac surgery scars is to metabolize pigments deeply to restore skin color, fully improve cell activity, and strengthen cell regeneration function. Through effective ingredients, it can effectively connect the broken dermis fibers caused by trauma and infection, soften and smooth the hyperplastic tissue of the scar, and make it completely close to normal.

Based on the different tissue morphology, pathological characteristics and patient repair expectations of cardiac surgery scars, accurate diagnosis is made and the most appropriate scar repair plan is developed to ensure efficacy and safety. The treatment uses advanced non-invasive laser instrument irradiation, scar softening drug injection and simultaneous non-surgical treatment to absorb and smooth the scars in a short period of time.

For example, for white scars left by heart surgery, it is recommended to use intense pulsed light IPL combined with drugs for treatment, which activates the decomposition and fading of pigment cells and particles, which are then cleared and absorbed by macrophages, restoring the normal color of the skin;

For already formed pitted and depressed scars, pixel radiofrequency epidermal regeneration, minimally invasive scar cosmetic surgery or flap transfer surgery may be used depending on the size and depth of the scar and the patient's personal constitution.
