Scar treatment is used to treat scars that can occur for many reasons, ranging from wounds on the body, scars that have been operated on, or scars that a person has created on their own body, and causes that cause trauma to the skin. All kinds of wounds, small or large, form scars when they close. Although these scars are removed over time with scar treatment, they may vary depending on the person’s skin color and the quality of healing of their skin.
Scars are undesirable both aesthetically and on the body due to the fact that they remind of bad memories and events that have happened. Scars can no longer stand in the face of scar treatment with today’s rapidly advancing technologies. In the treatment of scars, scars are treated in such a way that they have the least visibility.
The skin that forms the scar has the same cells as normal skin. However, as the wound heals, the collagen structure in the skin changes its form and creates a different image than normal skin.
In normal skin structure, a protein called collagen is in the form of fibers passing through each other in a cross-linked way. But when a wound forms, the structure of collagen takes the form of a structure parallel to the skin and one-way. Therefore, the texture of the scar becomes different from the structure of the skin.
For whatever reason wounds occur on the body, the body perceives open wounds as a problem. Faced with the danger of infection, the body immediately takes action and begins to repair wounds. That is why the difference in the structure of hastily formed skin occurs.
For scar scar correction treatment, in general, it should be expected that 6 months dec 1 year will pass after the closure of the scars. It is necessary to wait for the scars to become fully noticeable and mature. after the scar has taken its final form, it will be more correct to intervene and perform scar scar treatment.
Do Scars Heal at the Same Rate in All Parts of the Body?
The healing process of scars formed on the body and scars formed on the face is different from each other. In the same way, it is impossible to talk about the same rate of improvement in all parts of the body. Scars located on the front side of the chest, shoulder and back are areas that are more likely to remain scars due to the condition of the skin structure in these areas. In general, there are more scars left in the parts where the scars are stretched. Scars left in places of folds become less visible.
On average, one hour before the scar scar treatment, an anesthetic cream is applied to the application area to ensure that the painful effect of the fractional laser beam is not felt. The heating effect can be felt intensively in the Fraxel Dual laser process.
A fractional laser stimulates the production of collagen, which allows the skin to regenerate, allowing it to be structured. The laser beam, which allows the skin to be reconstructed, helps to reduce the defective area, while it allows you to experience a noticeable improvement after scar treatment in areas with excessive pigmentation.
In hypertrophic scar scars encountered in tummy tuck or breast operations, it is necessary to start laser treatment before the hypertrophic scar is formed. Scar formation is minimal in the treatment of scars that begin before the formation of hypertrophic scar scars.
Erbium YAG Glass Laser with a wavelength of 1540 or Erbium YAG laser with a wavelength of 1550 nm is used to treat scars. Fraxel Dual, which sends laser light in tiny columns to the lower layers of the skin, causes damage to the lower layers, triggering collagen formation and thus increasing the body’s capacity to heal scars. This structure in the lower skin rearranges the collagen and helps to pass or alleviate the scars.
Scars on the face, chest, neck, hands, arms and legs can be treated with Fraxel Dual laser with december sessions.
Edemas that may occur after the Fraxel Dual Laser procedure can be passed with this compress. A mild moisturizer can be used. The feeling of heat caused by the Fraxel Dual Laser resembles a sunburn, but it does not cause much discomfort to the person. between 6-12 months, the treated scar area should be protected from direct sunlight and sunscreen should be applied every time you go out into the sun dec
