Treatment of scald scar

summary

Because I was scalded by boiling water before, I left a black scar on the corner of my mouth. After a lot of treatment, let's talk about the treatment of scald scar.

Treatment of scald scar

Method 1: surgery, for more serious superficial or proliferative scars, plastic surgeons will choose the method of cutting and suturing or skin grafting to improve and correct the scar. The method of cutting is suitable for small concave and convex scars, such as water pockmark scars, ice cone shaped acne holes, too thick or concave scars. The method of operation is to remove the scar, then peel off the skin and subcutaneous tissue, reduce the tension of the wound, and then carefully suture, so as to make it into a more beautiful young linear scar. But as a last resort, the operation method is not selected, so as to avoid the formation of new scars. The cost of removing the scar by the operation method is about 500-3000 yuan.

Method 2: laser scar repair. Laser is suitable for superficial depressed and proliferative scars. When laser is applied to the skin, only the scar part on the surface of the skin is affected by the laser, and other tissues are not affected. These parts that are not affected by the laser will accumulate more collagen and elastin, helping the collagen regeneration and rearrangement in the dermis, In addition, laser irradiation will produce photothermal effect, photochemical effect, pressure effect, electromagnetic field effect and biological stimulation effect on the skin tissue, so that the damaged and necrotic tissue at the skin scar can be quickly pyrolyzed, gasified, or broken into tiny fragments, which are phagocytized by the phagocytes in the body and then discharged from the body, so as to achieve the purpose of healing the scar. The treatment cost of laser is 800-800 yuan It's about 0 yuan.

Method 3: pulsed light therapy, using pulsed light to stimulate fibroblast proliferation, make the dermis thicker, smooth pits, at the same time, because pulsed light can stimulate the proliferation of collagen, it is suitable for red pockmarks and newly formed shallow concave scars.

matters needing attention

For this disease: suitable for the early treatment and prevention of scar. The application of pressure sleeve is often limited due to skin damage caused by friction between pressure sleeve and scar surface, discomfort during use and swelling of limb end.
