Facial Scars: Surgical Revision and Treatment is a comprehensive review of the key and most effective treatment techniques of facial scars. Facial appearance related to scarring has an impact on issues of self image, self confidence, social interaction, and sometimes facial function. Physicians treating patients with facial scars require treatment modalities and procedures that offer the best opportunity for a return to a normal and aesthetic appearance. Facial Scars: Surgical Revision and Treatment provides detailed descriptions, illustrations, and photographs of these procedures. Chapters are sequenced and organized to develop an orderly progression from basic concepts and key considerations, to surgical techniques and options, to nonsurgical treatment enhancements.
Facial Scars presents scar treatment options and successful scar revision methods described by experienced physicians from various specialty backgrounds and perspectives. Successful scar revision is greatly impacted by pretreatment planning. Utilization of techniques best suited for the individual scar based on the scar’s location, configuration, anatomic factors, and Fitzpatrick skin type are discussed. Effective treatment has a significant beneficial impact on relieving patients suffering with scars.
