What sort of recovery is there after scar revision?
A-The recovery that you can expect after your scar revision procedure will depend on the technique that is used. In most cases, the scar can appear red right after treatment and this will fade with time. Swelling and bruising may also occur to some degree. Keeping the surgical site elevated and applying cold compresses can help to alleviate swelling. Your activities may be limited for a period of time after your procedure. It can take a year or more for the scar tissue to fully heal and for the maximum improvement to be seen.
