In the current plastic surgery industry, scar removal plastic surgery is one of the most common ways of plastic surgery in life, just in the face of different scars, many people choose scar removal plastic surgery methods are different, and scar softening needles timely one of them, many people for this scar softening needles do not understand, listen to others say the effect is blindly to use, but it really has a very good effect? We might as well take a look at the scar softening needle plastic surgery general knowledge introduced for us by plastic surgery experts! The scar softening needle is actually a generic term, the essence of the local hormone injection Scar softening needle is not a specific injection, but a local hormone injection, to remove the scar hormone types are not few, domestic such as prednisolone, trimethoprim A, etc., imported long-acting hormones, such as the Belgian-made , USP and Italian-made Coninectone, and the application of more trimethoprim, imported domestic are available. They are all steroid hormones that inhibit the proliferation of fibroblasts and collagen synthesis in scars, increase the production of collagenase, and decrease the production of collagenase inhibitors, thus causing changes in the ultrastructure of collagen. It makes the collagen fibers in order and also degrades the collagen nodules, promoting the maturation of the scars and thus shedding them. After the injection, the hypertrophic and prominent scars will gradually soften and flatten, and eventually soften and flatten. If someone tells you that you can use advanced “scar softening needles” to remove scars, but can’t tell you exactly what kind of hormones are used, most likely they are fooling you, don’t believe them! Simply put, because the dermal layer of the skin is injured, the epidermis of the area is not regenerated in time, and the wound can not be so open, the dermal layer will overgrow fibroblasts and collagen, haphazardly laid on the surface of the wound, and the scar is produced. The scar softening needle can act directly on the fibroblasts to soften and arrange them in order, and the scars will naturally become less visible or even disappear completely. How exactly does this scar softening injection work? One of the hormone drugs mentioned above is diluted and shaken in proportion, and then injected into the scar with a syringe. The needle penetrates the center of the scar horizontally into the needle, and after the needle penetrates in, push the medicine while retreating the needle, the amount of injection is whiteness of the scar at the time of injection shall prevail, and try to let the hyperplastic scar tissue infiltrate within the medicine to promote its maturation and fall off. Please note that scar softening injections are not a panacea either! Scar softening injections are only effective for prominent scars and scar bumps in the scar proliferation phase, but not for mature or depressed scars. To repair mature scars, it is mainly necessary to resort to surgery or laser grinding, etc. If your scars have been there for a long time and are prominent, you can consider scar softening injections to remove them. However, those who are originally scarred should not have the injection. After a wound heals, the surface scar will show a continuous increase in size, which will not only affect the appearance, but also have localized pain and even interfere with sports, and the scar will grow indefinitely after an injury to any part of the body. If you happen to be of this constitution, it is better not to try scar softening injections, because the injections will cause wounds on top of the original scars again, resulting in the re-growth of scars, and the effect will be imaginable. And, finally, I would like to remind you that if you want to get rid of your pesky scars through injections, you must go to a regular medical beauty institute to receive the injection treatment to ensure maximum safety and results!
