Understanding Scar Revision

Scar revision is a set of procedures designed to improve the appearance of scars, making them less noticeable and more consistent with your surrounding skin tone and texture. Whether caused by surgery, trauma, acne, or burns, each scar is unique—and so is the treatment plan.

While it’s important to understand that no scar can be completely erased, the goal of scar revision is to achieve a significant cosmetic improvement and in some cases, restore mobility or function if the scar tissue is restrictive.

Common Types of Scars We Treat

At Aviva Aesthetics, Dr. Ravuru evaluates each case individually and provides treatments for:

• **Hypertrophic Scars:** Raised scars that stay within the boundary of the original wound.
• **Keloid Scars:** Overgrown, raised scars that extend beyond the original injury.
• **Atrophic Scars:** Sunken or pitted scars often seen in cases of acne or chickenpox.
• **Contracture Scars:** Typically caused by burns, these scars can restrict movement.
• **Post-Surgical Scars:** Scars resulting from previous surgeries or procedures.
