Scar Revision/Removal in Poughkeepsie, NY

Board Certified Facial Plastic & Reconstructive Surgeons

Scar revision surgery drastically minimizes the visual appearance of a facial laceration scar. A facial laceration is a cut or tear in the soft tissue of your face or neck. Neck or facial scarring is often the result of severe acne, trauma, injury or surgery like skin cancer resection. Scarring may also occur as a result of previous plastic surgery procedures such as facelift, rhinoplasty, necklift, or eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty). Scars that occur as a result of injury or surgery often visibly remain after the wound has healed. Poor healing may result in unsightly and disfiguring scars. Even wounds that heal well often leave a noticeable trace.

Facial scarring may cause significant functional problems for patients when located closely to the lips, eyelids, ears, or nose. Repairing this damage requires a facial plastic and reconstructive surgeon with the expertise and experience to evaluate the damage of the facial laceration, or its severity, and work with you to recommend the best course of action.

Who is a Candidate for Facial Scar Revision?
Healthy men, women, and children seeking to minimize a small or large scar on their face and / or neck may be excellent candidates for facial scar revision. Younger patients may be candidates based on various factors, including medical history and emotional maturity. During a consultation, your surgeon will work with you to help determine the best course of action that will deliver the most appealing results.

 

What is the Recovery like from Facial Scar Revision?
Scar revision may be performed under local or general anesthesia, depending on the patient’s preference and severity of the case. We only practice the most state-of-the-art techniques and use a variety of treatment modalities to resolve any function or cosmetic impairment. Results will be almost invisible in appearance. More complicated deformities may require a series of separate treatments.

Scar revision of the face and neck is accomplished in an outpatient setting. Most patients return home after only a few hours. Mild redness and discomfort are common for 1-2 weeks following surgery, depending on the severity of the case. Healing will continue over time as the new scar heals and fades in appearance. Additional skin care treatments, such as laser skin resurfacing or chemical peels will help improve cosmetic results.

Scar revision surgery of the face and neck is an art. Those patients considering facial scar revision should carefully evaluate their surgeon’s credentials and training. Our elite surgeons have the experience and expertise to offer patients the best cosmetic results while protecting the proper function and movement of the face and neck.

Dr Abraham and his staff are all amazing. Nicole and Judy went above and beyond to answer any questions I had about my surgery. My rhinoplasty surgery was one of the best decisions that I have made for myself and I am so glad that I found Dr Abraham. His work was amazing!

From start to finish the staff has been great. I had a poor septoplasty experience in 2020 at a different office I was hesitant to do any further surgery. However Dr Abraham and his staff were great. I have improved my breathing and overall quality of life due to this rhinoplasty. I have already referred a few of my patients that come to my medical practice to this practice, and I’ll continue to refer them!
