What Is the Best Scar Treatment?
Sep 4th, 2009 by Sarah J. Eldred

Many scars will fade with time, but for those that don’t there are options available to minimize the appearance of scars. Scar treatments run the gamut of home-remedies to surgical procedures – inexpensive to expensive – and the results will vary depending on the magnitude of the scarring.

For light scars that are only slightly noticeable, there are at-home treatments such as Curad Scar Therapy. These strips contain no harsh chemicals, but the natural ingredients help stimulate the skin to produce new cells and make scars “disappear.”

For darker, more prominent scars, a physician or dermatologist can prescribe Retin-A, Scar FX, or another cream that is applied to the scarred area to stimulate skin regrowth. Dermatologists also recommend Mederma, another sheet/strip treatment that works in the same manner to improve the skin’s appearance.

However, if these treatments simply will not prove effective, your dermatologist may recommended a surgical option to help promote new cell growth. Dermatologists and physicians can offer either laser or conventional surgery options.

While laser treatments are typically not as invasive or complex as conventional surgery, the expense for such a procedure is often much higher in comparison. Laser surgery works by removing the damaged blood vessels that are responsible for the discolored appearance of scars and bolster new cell growth to help heal the remainder of the scar.

On the other hand, conventional surgery will removed the affected area completely, but skin grafting or sutures may be required and possibly will leave their own scars. Although, the scars from surgical procedures are much smaller and may be a preferred option to some patients.

Of course, preventative measures are always recommended to reduce the possibility of scarring and when you know the events that could cause scarring (pregnancy, weight fluctuations, surgery, etc.), use of lotions and creams can prepare the skin for the damage.

But for some, scars are the result of accidents or unforeseeable events and in those cases; treatment of the scar is the best option. So, it’s nice to know that there are several options available to those who need scar treatment.
