The Surgical procedures that are performed are collectively called Scar Revision and are usually done under general anesthesia. Now we will talk about the scar revision procedures that are performed popularly.
- Skin Grafting – It is the procedure that involves removal of the damaged skin with the healthy skin taken from your other parts of the body. During the removal of Keloid Tissue (thick, itchy, unsightly clusters of scar tissue that grow beyond the borders of actual wound) skin grafting is performed by taking healthy skin from the donor site and attaching it to the surgery area.
- Z- Plasty – In this scar revision procedure a ‘Z’ shape incision is used. In case of contracture your skin experiences a kind of pull, Z- Plasty is used in that case to decrease that pull. This technique can also be used to try and blend the Scarin the natural creases and folds of the surrounding skin.
- Laser Surgery – In this kind of surgery different types of lasers are used to smoothen, flatten or remove abnormal discoloration of the overlying skin of the scar.
- Skin Flap Surgery – During a flap surgery skin from a healthy part of your body along with the underlying fat, blood vessels and sometimes the muscle, is moved to the injured site.
- Tissue Expansion – Along with skin flap surgery the technique of tissue expansion is used. In this type of surgery the amount of existing tissues are increased for re-constructive purposes.
- Dermabrasion – For the smoothening of the scar tissues this technique is used. It is done by shaving or scrapping off the superficial layers of the skin. The goal of this technique is to improve the appearance and visibility of the scars over the time.

Precautions and Care
There is no need for prior hospitalization as Scar Revision will just take a day. Do not forget to tell the plastic surgeon about your health condition, any drug you are allergic to, any prescription or non-prescription medicines you are taking (vitamins, minerals or herbal products). It is also recommended to quit smoking two weeks prior the operation and not to resume it for at least two week after the Scar Revision surgery. Though you will heal slowly and gradually within a week but precautions should be taken for long. Final results will take a long time to become completely evident. The stitches will be removed within 3-5days of the Scar Revision surgery.
Alternatives
Cryotherapy – With the help of medication the scar tissue is frozen off to avoid pain, irritation and itching.
Steroid Injections – These injections reduces redness and burning sensation in the scar tissue. There are chances that it can also reduce the size of your scar.
Localized Pressure – A pressure bandage is used to apply pressure on the scar. It is done to reduce the size of the scar though it is considered as the least effective method.
