How is ReCell used to treat scars?
Scars occur when the edges of a wound cannot quickly join. The healing process focuses on closing the gap quickly more than producing good quality skin. By restoring a normal epidermis (the top layer of the skin) ReCell enables the normalisaton of the cellular activity underneath that ultimately improves the overall skin structure. It has to be remembered that once established, a scar can never be completely removed, it can only be remodelled so it blends with the surounding tissue and is less noticeable. Not every scar can benefit from ReCell and your surgeon will be able to advise on the best course of action.
