After most surgeries, certain scars will be left on the patient's skin surface, and some people with hyperplastic constitutions will have the problem of scar hyperplasia after leaving scars on their bodies. If the patient feels that his surgical scar is very hard after surgery, most of the time it is a sign of scar hyperplasia. So what are the solutions for the very hard scars after surgery?

1. Surgical scar removal: This is a commonly used method for treating scars in clinical practice. Surgical treatment can have a very obvious effect, especially for people with larger scars. There are also many surgical scar removal methods for patients to choose from. It is best to cooperate with drug treatment after the operation to prevent the recurrence of scar hyperplasia.

2. Injection method: Injecting corticosteroids into scars can relieve problems such as itching and pain or gradual thickening of scars after surgery, and soften and smoothen scars. Generally speaking, patients need to inject locally once a month or so, and can use it continuously until the local area returns to normal. And as long as it is used under the guidance of a professional doctor, there will be no obvious side effects.

3. Dermabrasion surgery: If the surgical scars are small, sunken scars or suture scars, you can consider laser treatment. You can also use mechanical dermabrasion surgery to smooth out the scars. Generally speaking, this treatment method is fast and effective. But it should be mentioned that this method is not suitable for treating raised hypertrophic scars.

4. Compression method: The materials used for compression therapy on scar areas are elastic cloth, manipulated film, silicone sheet, etc. Clinical studies have found that long-term compression of new scars on skin soft tissue can promote their early maturation, thereby softening scars and preventing their continued proliferation.

As long as you use appropriate treatment methods in time according to your actual situation, you can get effective improvement and cure.
