SCAR REVISION

What Is Scar Revision?

Scar revision is a minor, precision-based procedure designed to improve the appearance of:

  • Acne scars
  • Surgical scars
  • Injury or trauma scars
  • Raised scars (keloids / hypertrophic)
  • Depressed or uneven scars

The goal is simple:
Make the scar less visible, smoother, and better aligned with your natural skin,  so it no longer draws attention.

WHAT TO EXPECT

Treatment for every scar:

No two scars are the same and neither are the treatments. 

 

Based on your scar type, location, and skin quality, options may include:

  • Surgical scar revision (excision and precise closure)
  • Steroid injections for raised scars
  • Laser treatments for texture and pigmentation
  • Medical therapies to improve healing

★★★★★ 
 

I’d been hiding my torn earlobes under my hair for nearly a decade. Thirty minutes with Dr. Vasu and they were gone. The scar is honestly invisible. I wish I’d done it years ago.

Calm, surgical, completely judgment-free. I had stretched lobes from old gauges and Dr. Vasu treated it as a serious repair, not a cosmetic afterthought. Healed beautifully.

I went to two dermatologists before I came here. The difference in technique is immediately obvious. This is a plastic surgeon doing a plastic surgeon’s job.
