Is there any way to prevent lipo scars from becoming dented like this? What is the best treatment? Can subcisions be performed at 6 weeks post op for these scars

Hello @lauradelxxxx thank you for your question. Although scarring is inherent to the patient, processes can be performed to help improve its appearance. Sub incisions are a good alternative to start treating them early. or more information and recommendations is best to consult with one or several board certified plastic surgeons. Best wishes! Alan Gonzalez MD, FACS

Dear lauradelxxxx, scar prevention begins in the OR during the surgery when I meticulously close wounds in multiple layers in order to reduce tension and reduce scars width. I tape my incisions during the early postoperative period to reduce micromotions of the tissues so the incision can heal earlier.
