How to improve the appearance of dated scars
Scars often do not receive adequate treatment in the initial stages, immediately after the stitches are removed. Over time, this can lead to unsightly signs or, in some cases, functional limitations. Although less reactive than recent scars, long-standing scars can still be improved with specific treatments.
Treatment options for old scars include:
- Topical treatments | Specific patches, creams or gels can moisturise and improve the appearance of the scar. This is a non-invasive approach that requires consistency to achieve visible results.
- Therapeutic massages | Regularly massaging the scar with specific products helps improve skin elasticity, stimulate circulation and reduce adhesions with the underlying tissues, promoting functional recovery.
- Advanced Technologies | Several approaches are available today:
- Fractional lasers: smooth the skin and reduce irregularities.
- Microdermabrasion: a controlled exfoliation to improve skin texture.
- Radiofrequency: stimulates skin regeneration for smoother scars.
- Specific injections | With different substances, including:
- Filler: ideal for depressed scars, such as atrophic ones.
- Corticosteroids: used to reduce the volume of keloid or hypertrophic scars.
The importance of medical advice
Even older scars can therefore benefit from treatment; however, the improvement depends on the scar’s age and the consistency with which the recommended treatments are followed. Consulting a dermatologist or plastic surgeon is always essential to identify the solution that best suits your needs.
