A: Facelift Scars

Some Facelift scars can be improved with simple excision and some scars actually require a revision Facelift in order to correct the problem. The reason for this is that most unsightly scars occur due to inappropriate skin tension at closure. Simple excision can sometimes represent a repetition of the initial mistake.

Do You Know a Good Clinic in London UK That Can Remove my Venous Lake with No Scarring? I have a venous lake on my inside lower lip and would like to have it removed successfully with no scarring. I understand the best treatment is with a laser. I wonder if you can recommend a specialist in London UK to carry out the procedure? Many thanks. Sue

A: Surgery is often not necessary for venous lakes

Venous lakes are classically treated with surgery, but they are very well treated with one or two treatments using an 810nm hair removal device. A physician with some advanced knowledge may use these long-pulsed 810nm devices (i.e. Lightsheer), thus surgery, anesthesia, and time is not needed. I usually am able to treat it without any brusing with one treatment that does not require anesthesia or result in any downtime. Not sure of anyone in the UK who may be able to offer this service.

What Would Cause Wounds After Surgery to Still Have Scabs After 3 Months? I had esophagus surgery on June 13, today is September 15 and I still have scabs that hurt and have a red rim around them. what would cause this? attached are two pictures of two separate wounds. Please advise. thanks. Patricia

A: Sutures can sometimes cause persistent scabs

It is difficult to tell and I am not a GI surgeon, but sometimes the dermal sutures that placed underneath the skin are 'rejected' by the skin in some patients. The skin will sometimes try to 'spit' it out and this may result in some scabbing and redness. My recommendation would be to see the original surgeon and if this is the case, they can easily try to remove it.
