What is Scar Removal?

A scar is a line or a patch of tissue that replaces normal skin after injury or disease. Scar revision treatment aims to improve the appearance of scars. There are many scar revision treatments available and only the most common are discussed here.

About scars

Every time the skin or tissue is cut or damaged it will heal with a scar. Scars can happen outside and inside your body. For example, you may have a scar on your skin after an injury, but you can also have scars in deeper tissues or on your internal organs where a cut has been made during surgery.

Causes of scars

Any damage to the skin can cause a scar, including:

• Acne or chickenpox
• Burns
• Cuts or grazes
• Surgery

The worse the initial damage is to the tissue, the worse the scar will be. Your skin colour, age and an unhealthy diet and lifestyle (for example smoking) will all affect how your skin reacts to the damage.

Types of scars

There are several different types of scar

• Atrophic scar – a sunken or pitted scar. You may get this type of scarring after having acne or chickenpox.
• Contracture scar – this type of scar causes tightening of the skin and may affect movement in the affected area. You may get this type of scarring if you burn your skin and it can also occur in tissue around an implant (eg breast implant).
• Hypertrophic scar – a red, raised (lumpy) scar. You may get this type of scarring after surgery. They usually fade and soften spontaneously but this may take years.
• Keloid scars – a red, raised scar that extends beyond the original injury (may also be painful and itchy). These may never go soft or flat.
• Stretch marks – this is a type of scar that occurs when the skin is stretched rapidly (eg during a teenage growth spurt or pregnancy).

Treatment of Scars are usually permanent and you may choose to have scar revision treatment. This doesn’t guarantee that the scar will be removed, but the treatments aim to make it less obvious and reduce any tightness it may cause. Your skin colour, age and the type of scarring will influence how much improvement you can expect.

The type of treatment you have will depend on the features of your particular scar, such as its size, location and if it’s raised or depressed. A single type of treatment may be enough or you might need a combination of treatments to achieve the best results.
