DR. GRUNWALD WILL MEET WITH YOU TO DISCUSS YOUR GOALS
Excessive, highly visible scars such as keloids, hypertopic scars and contractor can cause self-consciousness and discomfort. Dr. Grunwald can treat and reduce the visibility of your scar using a variety of scar revision methods.
Topical Treatments:
Gels, tapes or external compression can promote wound closure and healing, as well as reduce the skin’s production of irregular pigment.
Injectable Treatments:
Injectables are often used to fill depressed or concave scars.
Surface Treatments:
Methods such as dermabrasion, laser or light therapy, chemical peel solutions, or skin bleaching agents can improve the appearance and texture of your scar.
Excision:
Through excision, Dr. Grunwald can remove, narrow or change the direction of your scar.
Pharmaceutical Tissue Substitutes:
In situations when healthy tissue is not present for closure of a scar incision, doctors can use pharmaceutical tissue substitutes or tissue expansion.
