Is there a way to hide/fix belly button scars after tummy tuck? (Photos)

Our treatments use combination therapy to improve the epidermis and dermis for most deep scars. The options available for acne scars depend on the character of your scars, in terms of topography and contour. We see atrophic and hypertrophic acne scars, as well as scars that have hypo and hyperpigmentation. We begin each scar evaluation with an assessment of scar quality and subtype. Our main concern is rebuilding collagen and that is why we use a HIDEF protocol that includes combination therapy. Morpheus 8, scar subcision, fibrous release, fractional laser, CO2 laser, Thulium laser, PDL Vbeam laser, and fractional resurfacing can be used in addition to TCA Cross and chemical peels to further improve skin. Patients should start Melarase AM and Melarase PM for active hyperpigmentation. Always begin with a consultation to decide whether early subcision should be started.

Hello Canx5. For raised or bumpy scars, we would suggest steroid (Kenalog) injections. These injections soften the scar tissue and get rid of the bumpiness (see link). If it's the texture that you are looking for, then we would offer fractional resurfacing.

Hi there,

You can try micro needing, Venus Viva ... something to puncture and wound the skin to produce collagen to even out the area. See an expert!
