Acne Scar Removal London

Understanding Scar Revision

Scar revision is a specialised medical procedure designed to reduce the visibility of scars and improve their texture, colour, and overall appearance. 

Scar revision surgery can be particularly effective for raised scars, lumpy scars, or those that are painful, itchy, or pigmented. 

At Goutos London, we treat scars caused by injuries, surgery, or conditions like acne – including those resulting from a tummy tuck or other cosmetic procedures.

During your consultation with our world-renowned team, you can discuss your needs and explore the various treatments we offer, all under the guidance of a highly skilled plastic surgeon.

Treatment Options for All Scar Types

We offer both non-surgical and surgical scar revision options depending on the type and severity of the scar. Treatments include:

• Steroid injections for hypertrophic and keloid scars to reduce inflammation and flatten raised scars
• Chemical and laser peels to improve pigmentation and texture of the scar and surrounding skin
• Surgical excision or scar removal for deep or extensive scar tissue, often followed by careful re-stitched wound closure with less tension.
• Combination techniques tailored to the healing process and individual skin needs

Some procedures may be performed under local anaesthetic, while others – especially larger revisions – may require general anaesthetic. Mr. Ioannis Goutos will discuss all treatment options and potential complications with you during your consultation.

Recovery and Results

Healing from scar revision generally takes a few weeks, depending on the type of procedure and the body’s natural healing response. Patients may experience mild redness, itching, or pain during the early recovery period, but these typically subside. We monitor the healing process closely to minimise infection and encourage optimal results.

While it’s not always possible to completely remove a scar, modern techniques can significantly improve its appearance and texture. Many patients notice smoother, more even skin with significantly less discomfort and visibility.
