Whether from the results of surgery or an accident, a scar on your child may not have healed as well as you would have liked and you want the appearance of it improved. Through scar revision, the old scar on your child is carefully removed and the area reclosed with special techniques to improve the appearance of the scar. If the child is old enough, the procedure may even be performed under local anesthesia. The final decision will be made by both Dr. Monasebian and the parent.
