Answer: Scar revision Hello and thank you for your question. You may be a candidate for scar revision surgery, depending on the degree of skin laxity around your knee. The most important aspect is to find a surgeon you are comfortable with. I recommend that you seek consultation with a qualified board-certified plastic surgeon who can evaluate you in person. Best wishes and good luck. Richard G. Reish, M.D. Harvard-trained plastic surgeon

Answer: Knee scar revision The knee is one of the most difficult places for scarring as you continually stretch it while engaged in daily activities. Scar revision can only be undertaken if you have enough skin to mobilize. Serial excision and closure may be an option. Kenalog injections may soften the scar. Best wishes.
