Subcision for Bound Down Scars - Best Done by a Dermatologist?

April 21, 2011
Asked By:justthefacts in Florida

hello I have two bound down scars that I feel certain would benefit from subcision. It is adhered to the tissue beneath, and because the scar is in an area of a lot of movement, it is immobilizing. Which specialty generally does this type of procedure? I can't seem to find plastic surgeons who do this; they either do scar revision or recommend a laser, whichever laser the surgeon has.
