Reducing Scars For Some Operation

All surgical procedures result in scars. One of the main skills of plastic surgeons is to conrtol scar formation. They do this by carefully choosing incision location and pattern, by gently handling the skin with fine, specialized instruments, and by the skillful and careful repair of surgically or traumatically created incisions and wounds.

The development of minimal incision or endoscopic surgery, is a significant advance in reducing scars for some operations.

Much of how you will form scars, however, depends on the location of the incision, and your racial and genetic pre-disposition to scarring. People with black African and yellow Asian skin are especially prone to excess scarring, and incisions must be very carefully planned.
