SCAR REVISION | TREATMENT LEARNING VIDEOSBellevue & Seattle

Learn Why People All Over the World have come to see Sir Harold Delf Gillies Award Winning & Beverly Hills Trained Facial Plastic Surgeon Dr. Philip Young

Below are a collection of videos that discusses scar revision techniques. Among these techniques include our preferred approach for scars using a geometric line closure to hide scars better. Although the geometric line closure appears to create a more haphazard scar and what appears to be a worsening of the scar, in actuality it helps the straight line scar to hide because it creates a randomness that allows the scar to hide within the rest of the face or part of the body that it resides. Once the Geometric line closure is healed you can then do resurfacing techniques using lasers or dermasanding techniques as early as 4 weeks after the procedure to further hide the scar and blend it into the natural surroundings.

Co2 Laser Skin Resurfacing | Dermasanding | Dermabrasion for Dog Bite Scar

Dr Philip Young of Seattle | Bellevue Describes the use of scar revision techniques to help this person who was bit by a dog. The story Goes that the patient opened up the back of a pickup truck and a very large dog clamped on to her face. This is a patient that we previously did a face lift for who, hence, had a lot of trust in our skills.

This patient had a geometric line closure to hide the straight line scar that was also contracting and creasing whenever she smiled. After the geometric line closure we performed a laser resurfacing with dermabrasion dermasanding approach to further hide her scar.

Scar Revision, Ice Pick Scars, Box Car Scars with TCA (Tricholoroacetic Acid) Deep Peels By Dr Young of Seattle / Bellevue Washington

Another way to improve scars is through the use of chemical peeling. Ice pick scars and boxcar scars can respond quite well to 80% to 100% trichloroacetic acid peels. This approach causes the scars to become injured so that when they heal they build up to the level of the rest of the skin.

The results are that the depression becomes elevated and hopefully closer to the rest of the level of your surrounding area. Other ways to do the same type of approach is through the use of co2 laser resurfacing by using this modality in a special manner. We often approach this through our New and Unique approach to acne scarring called the Acne Scar Vitalizer Treatment.

Acne Scar Treatment / Revision Using Direct Excision, Subcision By Dr Young of Seattle / Bellevue Washington

Sometimes direct excisional techniques can help especially if there are scars that are conglomerated in a way that a pattern can be formed through excision techniques. This haphazard arrangement of the scars in itself can create a geometric closure pattern that can hide the scars better.

Scars that occupy a large portion of the face such as in the setting of acne scarring can present challenges when considering excisional techniques. Using excisional techniques in such large areas can be an unattractive approach. It is in this setting that the Acne Scar Vitalizer may be a better option.
