Frequently Asked Questions About Scar Revision
Does a poorly healed wound require surgery?
Not always. Experts often try other less aggressive methods to remove a scar. However, they may determine that this is the only formula.
How can I know if my scar will stop changing?
It can never be entirely safe or secure. Therefore, if your scar experiences changes or you think it does, it is best for a specialist to make sure and recommend some type of measure.
Is it normal that my scar has grown in size?
Scars are unlikely to change over time. Sometimes they can change size, but this is more due to the stretching of the skin, for example, when we gain weight. Still, if your scar has changed, you should not worry, you just have to go to a scar revision in Miami.
What is observed in a scar revision?
Basically, the scar revision process is a medical consultation to assess the state of healing after an operation. The objective is to control that everything is developing in the best way and to identify the formation of a keloid scar as soon as possible.
Am I responsible for poor healing?
The patient is not always to blame for poor healing, as it can be caused by accidents or unforeseen issues. In any case, you should always follow the recommendations of the doctors so that the healing after your surgery is as fast and healthy as possible.
Should I always check my scars after surgery?
Specialist doctors will tell you in which cases it is convenient to make a review consultation. In many cases, when the stitches are removed, it can already be known that healing is correct and subsequent revisions are not necessary. In any case, if you notice something strange in your scar, make an appointment with our professionals.
What is the risk of not checking my scar?
Whenever the doctor indicates it, it is advisable to do a scar revision. The risk that may exist in the face of poor healing is the formation of a keloid scar, which must be operated on again.
