Visible scars can have a profound impact on one’s self esteem, regardless of the original cause. If you have a scar that bothers you, Dr. Asfa may be able to help by performing scar revision surgery using his advanced skills as a board certified plastic surgeon. The goal of a scar revision procedure is to attempt to minimize a scar so that it is less conspicuous and blends in with the surrounding skin tone and texture.



Scars are visible signs that remain after a wound has healed. They are the unavoidable results of injury or surgery, and their development can be unpredictable. Poor healing may contribute to scars that are obvious, unsightly or disfiguring. Even a wound that heals well can result in a scar that affects your appearance. Scars may be noticeable due to their size, shape or location; they can also be raised or depressed, and may differ in color or texture from the surrounding healthy tissue.

Dr. Asfa offers a variety of options for scar revision based on the type and degree of scarring, and include: simple topical treatments, minimally invasive procedures and surgical revision with advanced techniques in wound closure. Although scar revision can provide a more pleasing cosmetic result or improve a scar that has healed poorly, a scar cannot be completely erased.
