How to inhibit scar hyperplasia

Scar hyperplasia is a problem that many people will encounter, especially for people with scar-prone constitution, scar hyperplasia is commonplace. Of course, after scar hyperplasia occurs, it needs to be treated with certain methods. If not treated, the scar hyperplasia will become larger and larger. So, how can we remove and inhibit scar hyperplasia? The following will introduce relevant knowledge to you!

1. The best way to remove hypertrophic scars

Hypertrophic scars are constantly changing since they occur. At the beginning, the fibers of the scar proliferate rapidly and in large quantities. Excessive fibrosis often compresses and closes the blood vessels inside the scar, causing it to gradually become ischemic.

At present, scar treatment at home and abroad mostly adopts local drug closure, skin transplantation, surgical excision and skin grafting, lens scar abrasion, balloon dilatation, antibody injection, radiotherapy, compression therapy, hormone therapy, silicone and other therapies. They are not very mature in clinical practice and their efficacy remains to be seen. Moreover, some of them take a long time, are very painful, are prone to recurrence, and have adverse consequences. Many of them are not satisfactory.

2. Local subcutaneous injection for the treatment of scar hyperplasia

For scar hyperplasia, the drug injection is directly injected into the scar for treatment. The main ingredient of this drug is steroids, which can fight inflammation and inhibit scar growth. This is currently the simplest treatment method for scar hyperplasia.

3. Surgical treatment of scar hyperplasia

Surgical treatment of scar hyperplasia is relatively suitable for scars with larger areas. The treatment is relatively difficult, and the clinical effect is generally good. Common methods include: scar excision and skin grafting, skin flap method, simple excision and suture method, skin expander expansion and excision method, and free skin grafting method.

4. Laser therapy for scar hyperplasia

The lasers used in scar treatment mainly include CO2 laser and dye laser. CO2 laser uses its photothermal reaction to burn scar tissue, causing it to vaporize and carbonize. The dye laser beam can occlude blood vessels with a diameter less than 0.5 mm in the tissue, causing focal necrosis and thus alleviating hypertrophic scars.
