Is there anyway of fixing a depressed c-section scar without having to be to invasive? (Photo)

Thank you for your question and photograph.  If the scar is slightly indented, a needle can be used to help release the scar from any underlying tethering to improve its appearance in a process termed subcision.  In most cases of a tethered scar, however, the best result comes from cutting out the scar and closing the layers of skin in an appropriate fashion to prevent this indented appearance.  This can be done in a surgeon's office and does not require a mini-tummy tuck. Hope this helps.

Plastic surgery scars require attention after surgery so that they remain cosmetically-appealing and barely noticeable. In our office, we use a protocol for scars that minimizes their activity in the 6-8 weeks after surgery. If you have late plastic surgery scars, you may also require laser and RF therapy to help reduce the longterm effects of the scarring. Keloids, hypertrophic scars, widened scars, red scars, and hyperpigmented scars all require scar modulation with topical creams followed by lasers and RF therapy. Topical skincare should be directed to a specific need, whether for pigmentation or hypertrophy and our office can guide you through the process to obtain the correct Plato’s Scar cream or Melarase cream for hypertrophy and discoloration. In terms of lasers, we would employ the vbeam laser for redness, Venus Viva RF, PRP microneedling, chemical peels, and Morpheus 8, fractional erbium, or fractional co2. All of these have their individual benefits. Most of all, we recommend you visit a solid plastic surgeon who understands surgical scar revision, laser therapy, and RF therapy for scars.

This looks like it needs a tummy tuck with surgical scar revision to get improvement.  You can try lasers and other non invasive options but likely they will not help much.  Best, Dr. emer.

Your best choice is to have the scar surgically revised; however, it looks like you also have keloid or hypertorphic scaring, in addition to the depressed scar; if this is the case then your have other choices in addition to surgical revision only and you should discuss treatment of keloid and/or hypertrophic scaring with your surgeon.

In my experience the use of sub dermal submission its a 16 gauge NoKor needle rarely works especially in an example you are presenting. The "Gold Standard' is surgical release i.e. mini TT. Fee $5,000.
