SCAR REVISION
Skin surgery
Scar revision improves the appearance of visible, thick, or irregular scars to make them more discreet and harmonious.
This procedure is performed by Dr. Samuel Levy, plastic surgeon, using a personalized approach.
FOR WHOM?
Scar revision is recommended for:
• Wide or thick scars
• Contracted or irregular scars
• Scars resulting from surgery or trauma
• Aesthetic or functional discomfort
A PERSONALIZED APPROACH
Each procedure begins with a consultation to assess your situation and determine the most suitable technique. Our goal: a natural, harmonious, and lasting result that respects your anatomy.
RESULTS
The scar gradually becomes finer, softer, and less visible.
The results continue to improve over the months as the healing process progresses.
THE PROCEDURE IN DETAIL
What scars can be improved?
A scar can become bothersome when it is wide, raised, indented, tightened, or poorly placed. This is often the case after an old injury, an accident, or difficult healing. Revision surgery aims to make the scar thinner, flatter, and less noticeable, although it cannot make it disappear completely.
The solutions offered
Depending on the type of scar, Dr. Samuel Levy may suggest surgical revision, which involves removing the scar and closing the skin with a finer technique. For certain scars, additional treatments performed at the clinic – such as Dermapen, peels, or lasers – can improve skin texture and color. The treatment plan is determined during a consultation.
Good to know
When can a scar be revised? It is recommended to wait until the scar has stabilized, usually at least one year after the procedure or injury.
Is the result guaranteed? An improvement is the goal, but the final quality also depends on individual skin and healing characteristics. Dr. Levy will discuss realistic expectations with you during your consultation.
How can I promote good healing? By protecting the scar from the sun, following the prescribed aftercare, and avoiding smoking, which slows down the healing process.
