I have had a rhinoplasty 14 month ago, together with alar base narrowing. Now I am stuck with scars from the alar procedure. I have sebaceous skin, and blame that on the scarring. I am considering fractionated laser or dermbrasion but am concerned that my skin type could be a showstopper for these options. Would scar revision be a better option? What are your experience with my skin type and these procedures ? Thank in advance.
Answer: HIDEF Scar Revision for Alar Scars using surgical and non surgical methods including fractional RF and fractional laser Alar scars can be white and visible. Hidef protocols can help with visible alar scars on the face. I see a lot of these in my office in Beverly Hills. Surgery is often not needed if lasers and HIDEF scar revision techniques are introduced.

Answer: Alar wedge procedure The problem is not the quality of the scars. The problem is that the scar is not exactly in the crease. This is an easy correction to undergo and could be performed under local,anesthesia in about thirty minutes.

Answer: Alar base scar improvement I agree with Dr. Bressler that your incisions are placed slightly too far outside of the alar groove. Several fractional laser resurfacing treatments or a single spot dermabrasion should dramatically improve these incisions. If this fails, a scar revision can be performed to "move" the scars closer to the groove where they would be better camouflaged. I hope this information is helpful for you.Stephen Weber MD, FACSDenver Facial Plastic Surgeon

Answer: Alar Base Scar Revision It is almost better to have a formal scar revision and have the tissues make a new effort at creating a better scar. This is particularly true when the scars are not ideally in the alar-facial groove.
