I have a scar on the bridge of my nose I was wondering if there was anything I can do to help the appearance of it? I had nose surgery like 4-5 years ago I was wondering if we could do anything to help the appearance of my scar and how much would the procedure cost?

Answer: Nose scar Thank you for your photos. For older scars that have plateaued in their improvement, microneedling, fractionated laser, and radiofrequency make microscopic holes in the scar to stimulate your body to remodel and fill in the scar with new collagen. In your particular case, it appears the skin edges from the initial wound did not line up perfectly flat. You may also want to consider a surgical re-excision to start over with a fresh, thinner and flatter scar to improve its appearance. For the best treatment options, it is important to visit an expert for an in-person examination. Hope this helps!
