Everyone
loves to have a beautiful physical appearance. Scars on the face are
one of the worst forms that affect your facial features. They can
arise from any cause such as burns, accident or as a result of acne.
Whatever be the cause of the scar, it can reduce your facial beauty
and make you very conscious of your appearance in front of others. It
may also make people notice you unnecessarily and in a public place
you can feel embarrassed by it. Fortunately cosmetic surgery offers a
solution through scar revision.
This
type of treatment is given based on the nature of the scar. Whatever
be the type, the cosmetic surgeon will have a detailed discussion
about the treatment process depending on the scar visibility and
type, so that you know many details like how it is gong to be
removed, how you should be prepared for it, if anesthesia is going to
be used or not, how long the process will take and much more.
If
the scar is a facial scar, there are many surgical processes used to
remove it. It can be cut off; else it can be closed by making use of
tiny stitches. Facial scars that are spread across the face’s lines
of relaxation can be positioned differently so that they are parallel
to such lines. This makes the scars less noticeable. A very popular
method used in the reduction of scars is dermabrasion; here the
visible signs of the scar are reduced by removing the topmost layers
of the skin, using a high-seed rotary wheel tool. This gives a smooth
surface to the skin, however it does not erase the scar altogether.
Another method to remove facial scars is the use of Z-plasty, which
repositions the scar in such a way that it conforms to the natural
lines of the skin thus making it less noticeable. Other forms of
reducing facial scars are by making use of skin grafting method and
making use of steroid injections.
When
opting for facial scar revision, what you need to consider is how
much it will improve you life in having its appearance reduced. Scars
can not only diminish the beauty of your face, they can give an odd
touch to your otherwise normal facial expressions. Not only will your
looks improve, you will not find yourself the point of undue
attention from people around you. The feeling of consciousness when
you are socially mingling with others will go away and you can get a
skin surface that is quite clear and refreshing. Very prominent
facial scars caused by burning or an accident can be reduced to a
great degree after a scar revision procedure which is done quickly,
painlessly using latest tools and which gives effective results. The
only requirement is that you must be in sound health. One point to be
understood about the nature of scars is that they are permanent. Any
cosmetic surgery for revising the scar can only reduce it or relocate
it but cannot remove it permanently. The results are quite
satisfying and after the revision you can easily cover the reduced
visible scar using ordinary makeup.
