Scar with raised borders - how can I improve this? (Photo)

Massaging can help improve the scar appearance, but I'd recommend that you consider microneedling +/- PRF for scar improvement. This minimally invasive procedure can easily be done under topical anesthesia.

For unique cases where a variety of modalities could be used to treat the condition, I would suggest an in person or virtual consultation to develop a custom and effective treatment plan. It is difficult to precisely define the best option without collecting the same information. I suggest reaching out to an expert for a consultation with surgical and non-surgical methods to get a comprehensive option. Best, Dr. Emer.

Hello ! Thank you for your question I would definitely recommend contacting the surgeon about this situation, it may not be difficult and correct to evaluate from the photos.

Hello !


Laser treatments (like fractionated CO2)/ SurgiWire could help you with your scar.

Of course an “in person” exam is necessary.
Best of luck !
