Skin Reconstructive Surgery
Board Certified Skin Reconstruction Surgeons
Reconstructive skin surgery is very common in a plastic surgery practice. Our Board Certified Plastic Surgeons perform a wide range of skin surgeries. Some types of skin surgeries are: major and minor burns, lesion and mole removal-including skin cancer, birthmarks and scar revisions from previous injury or surgeries. These may not all require surgery as there are several options for non-surgical treatments as well. Our surgeons will discuss these options with you and decide with you what is best.
Scar Revision
Scar revision will attempt to minimize a scar so that it is less conspicuous and blends in with the surrounding skin tone and texture. Your treatment options may vary based on the type of scar and the degree of severity. They can include simple topical treatments, minimally invasive procedures or surgical revision with advanced techniques in wound closure. Although scar revision can provide a more pleasing cosmetic result or improve a scar that has healed poorly, a scar cannot be completely erased.
Reconstructive Skin Surgery for Scars
Just as no two scars are the same, no two people heal the same. Scars can not only be bothersome, or disfiguring, but at times can also be restrictive to movement and painful. There are several ways to improve scars, with and without surgery. Some non-surgical options include: laser, steroid injections or fat injections. Surgical options to revise scars are specifically tailored to you and a consultation is the best way to discuss those.
