Overview
What is scar revision?
Scar revision changes the direction, width or level of an existing scar so it settles less visibly. It improves a scar rather than removing it, and is often combined with laser or needling afterwards.
Every plan at Own Skin Dermatology & Advanced Aesthetics begins with a consultation, an honest assessment of what will help, and what will not.

The science
How scar revision works
The scar is assessed for width, level and direction
01
Step 1
The scar is assessed for width, level and direction
02
Step 2
A surgical plan realigns or excises it under local anaesthesia
03
Step 3
Layered closure reduces tension on the wound
Resurfacing and scar care refine the result over months
