Plastic Surgery for Scar on my Nose After Laser Tx I had a fibrous popule removed from my nose 8 months ago. It has healed over but there is now a circular scar on the side of my nose that is red\dark. I had my dermatologist laser zap the spot 3 weeks ago to help reduce the redness but it only has helped a minimal amount. I have been reading about various types of plastic surgeons who deal with facial scars from surgical procedures, but have no idea what type to look into or if this is possibility for me? Thank you in advance.

A: Scar treatment after Laser Surgery

Scar treatment included several options. Unfortunately, most scars cannot be eliminated by plastic surgeons but rather improved. Multiple factors determine final outcome. Only after a comprehensive evaluation can a specialist help determine appropriate options for you. Best of luck.

How to Remove Keloids on Back i have 3 keloids on my shoulders which look very ugly . i cant wear sleeveless clothes because of them . please help me . i need a way to remove them.

A: Removing Keloids

If the keloids were caused by an injury then they usually respond to cutting them out and having a meticulous plastic surgeon restitch them. We could also use kenalog (cortisone like medicine) to help them flatten out and improve.

In areas like the shoulder, a keloid may not improve much because it is always under motion stress during walking, exercise, etc.

Meet with a board-certified plastic surgeon in person and discuss your options.
