How to remove scars

There are various methods of scar removal, including non-surgical treatment and surgical treatment, both of which are applicable and briefly described as follows: 1. Non-surgical treatment: If the keloid is obvious and raised on the skin surface, it can be gradually softened by local injection of hormonal drugs, and local anesthetic drugs, usually once a month, if the treatment is carried out according to the course If the treatment is carried out according to a course of treatment, the effect will be relatively obvious. If the scar is not visible on the surface of the skin, it can be improved by laser treatment, such as fractional laser. In addition, post-operative X-ray irradiation can also be used to assist in the treatment; 2. Surgery: If the scar is relatively large, the keloid is very obvious and conservative treatment is not effective, the scar can be removed by surgery. If the scar is relatively small, it can be directly sutured after excision, if the scar is relatively large, a skin graft is needed to repair the wound after excision. After excision, when the skin graft is viable or the incision is healed, anti-scar medication should be used as early as possible so that scar growth can be prevented.

However, for people with keloid, surgical treatment may produce new scars, so the need for surgery should be clarified under the doctor’s evaluation, or postoperative light X-ray irradiation and other supplementary treatments should be performed to prevent scar growth.
