Though a scar cannot be removed completely it is often possible to make it
appear less obvious. This can be done through the injection or application of
steroid medications. Scar modification can also be achieved by a procedure
known as a scar revision.

Surgical scar revision can change the size of a scar, raise depressed scars
or lower elevated scars. Scar revision improves the appearance of a scar
while leaving another - though less obvious - scar in its place. While a scar's
color cannot be altered, color will usually fade in time.

Because every scar is different and requires a different approach, a
consultation with Dr. Inman will determine the best approach to treat your
scar.

Most methods of scar revision can be done in-office using local anesthesia.
