This type of scar proliferates in a pseudotumoral manner, extending and thickening beyond the initial wound. It may continue to grow after the wound has closed, and the main risk factors for this type of scar are due to genetic components such as race, the anatomical area where it occurs, or age.

What is the treatment to remove scars?

Scars are marks on the skin that form after an injury, surgery, burn, or skin condition such as acne. While they are part of the natural healing process, many people seek to eliminate or reduce their appearance to improve aesthetics and regain their confidence. Today, there are various treatments to remove scars, ranging from medical procedures to minimally invasive options that help regenerate the skin and improve its texture.

How is the scar removal procedure performed?

This surgery is performed under local anesthesia and consists of a combination of procedures that typically involve the resection of the previous scar and tension-free sutures. Hospitalization is not required, and it is essential to follow the postoperative measures recommended by Bloome by EGOS to facilitate targeted healing. These can occur in two forms:

This is characterized by excessive scar proliferation that extends beyond the initial wound. Wounds that have suffered infection are more likely to develop hypertrophic scars. Some large hypertrophic scars may appear similar to keloids, and the way to differentiate them is that a hypertrophic scar is limited to the original edges of the wound, while a keloid extends beyond the edges of the original lesion.

Ideal patient for scar removal

The ideal patient for scar removal is one who meets certain criteria that make them a good candidate for the procedure. Although each case is unique and should be evaluated individually by a plastic surgeon, some common attributes of the ideal patient include:

Stable scars: Patients with stable scars, which have gone through the natural healing process and do not show signs of active inflammation or recent changes in the scar, are good candidates.
General health: A patient in good general health is ideal to minimize the risks associated with surgery. This means having a stable medical condition and not having significant contraindications.
Non-smoker or willing to quit smoking: Tobacco can negatively affect healing. A non-smoker or a patient willing to quit smoking before and after the procedure may achieve better results.
Commitment to postoperative care: Scar removal often requires specific postoperative care, such as the use of creams or dressings. The ideal patient is committed to following the surgeon’s instructions to optimize results.
Scars affecting functionality or aesthetics: The ideal patient is one whose scars affect functionality or aesthetics, justifying the surgical intervention to improve appearance or mobility.
Individualized evaluation: Individualized evaluation by a plastic surgeon is key. Every patient has unique needs, and determining suitability will be based on a detailed assessment of the specific scar and the patient's characteristics.

It is essential that the ideal patient actively participates in the process, sharing their expectations and concerns with the plastic surgeon, and following the recommendations before and after the procedure to optimize results and recovery.
