What Types of Scar Revision Treatment Does Orange County Cosmetic Surgery Offer?
The type of scar and its age factor into your recommended treatment. Most scars are revised with one of the following methods:
- Steroid injection
- Surgery
- Laser therapy
- Silicone scar gel or tape
Dr. Anthony Miller at Orange County Cosmetic Surgery offers additional, less common treatments, but a consultation is necessary to find the best solution for each client.
How Soon Before Results Are Noticeable After Scar Revision Treatment?
The type of procedure used determines how long it takes to see results. Steroid injections are performed over a course of months. You may begin to see good results within several months, and most people see noticeable results after one year.
It’s the same for surgical procedures. It takes around twelve months for results to become noticeable. Once the procedure is performed, you will need to wait a while for the redness and swelling to go away. You will notice an improvement after several weeks, and again after several months, with final results generally taking shape a year after surgery.
Overall, it can take some time for the results to finalize. It’s important to be patient and remind yourself of how you’ll feel once the scar is less noticeable.
