The new skin is taped in place and takes between five to seven days to heal. The punch excisions procedure removes the scared skin with minuscule holes and stitches the remaining skin together without the need of a skin graft, taking about seven days to heal as well. These two procedures leave a scar on the skin, but it is much smaller and less obvious than the original scar removed, leaving the skin with a smoother texture. Punch grafts or excisions are a good technique to treat deep or pitted acne scars.]]></description> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.medimise.com/skin/punch-grafts-and-punch-excisions/feed</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>Laser Resurfacing and Pulsed Dye Laser Scar Revision</title><link>http://www.medimise.com/skin/laser-resurfacing-and-pulsed-dye-laser-scar-revision</link> <comments>http://www.medimise.com/skin/laser-resurfacing-and-pulsed-dye-laser-scar-revision#comments</comments> <pubDate>Wed, 19 Nov 2008 23:41:41 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>Medimise</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Skin]]></category> <category><![CDATA[acne]]></category> <category><![CDATA[acne scar]]></category> <category><![CDATA[acne scar treatment]]></category> <category><![CDATA[chicken pox and other types of scars]]></category> <category><![CDATA[keloids]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Laser Resurfacing]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Pulsed Dye Laser Scar Revision]]></category> <category><![CDATA[raised scars]]></category> <category><![CDATA[scar]]></category> <category><![CDATA[scar treatment]]></category> <category><![CDATA[skin texture]]></category> <category><![CDATA[surgical]]></category> <guid

Within this method the damaged skin is removed or remodelled using a high-energy light. After recovering the skin may stay pink for many weeks or months, especially if the skin is resurfaced with carbon dioxide laser. Different types of laser can be used depending upon the type of scar to be treated. Pulsed dye laser can be used to flatten raised scars (hypertrophic scars or keloids) as well as to reduce scar redness by applying a yellow laser light to the skin. In order to obtain a good result it may be needed to repeat the treatment two times or more every two months. Itching and burning feeling in the scar can also be treated with yellow laser light. The appearance of acne scars or indented (atrophic) scars can be enhanced with laser skin resurfacing.]]></description> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.medimise.com/skin/laser-resurfacing-and-pulsed-dye-laser-scar-revision/feed</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>What is a scar?</title><link>http://www.medimise.com/skin/what-is-a-scar</link> <comments>http://www.medimise.com/skin/what-is-a-scar#comments</comments> <pubDate>Tue, 18 Nov 2008 22:25:15 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>Medimise</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Skin]]></category> <category><![CDATA[acne scar treatment]]></category> <category><![CDATA[scar]]></category> <category><![CDATA[scar treatment]]></category> <guid

It is a normal part of the healing process as the skin tries to repair itself. The greater the wound to the skin and the longer it takes for the skin to recover there is a greater chance of the scar becoming more evident. A new scar is normally red and thick at first, it tends to fade away gradually with time after the skin heals completely. Some scars may improve on their own over a period of six to eighteen months. The formation of a scar will depend upon the person’s age as well as the location of the body or face. A young skin has a strong repair capability, leading to larger, thicker scars. A scar can never be completely removed. A treatment will not bring the skin back to its original state before the injury occurred, but it can minimise the mark, making it less obvious. There are different ways of treating scars and as each scar is different each will require a different treatment.
