For a woman, her self-confidence can be made or broken by her general appearance. One of the body parts which women feel self-conscious about is their breasts. Scars caused by breast reduction/enlargement operations or other forms of surgery can be an embarrassing nuisance for women, however, with cosmetic medicine reaching new heights daily, getting rid of scars is possible through non-surgical breast scar removal techniques.
Technique 1: Laser Technology
One way to accomplish it is by using laser technology. During this process, a laser is moved along the scar, thus vaporizing a layer of the skin to expose a newer, smoother layer, which heals in time and minimizes the appearance of the scar. Another method implemented in laser scar removal is targeting the lower layers of the skin to stimulate collagen growth in them, therefore smoothing out scars from the inside.In case individuals requiring breast scar removal are interested in laser treatments, they must be aware of the complications that come with this procedure. Two of the most common side effects are hyper-pigmentation and hypo-pigmentation. The first term refers to the darkening of the skin whereas the second one means the loss of color all together. In addition, both of these problems can escalate due to extra exposure to the sun. Other problems caused by laser scar removal include infections and allergic reactions, yet both of these are controllable through ointments and oral antibiotics.
Techniques 2 & 3: Microdermabrasion and Dermabrasion
Microdermabrasion is another cosmetic technique which can be useful in breast scar removal. This is a non-chemical procedure in which micro-crystals are sprayed to remove the upper layer of the scar in order to bring forward younger and healthier looking skin. This is gentler in nature than Dermabrasion and therefore can be used for simple regular and breast scar removal. On the other hand, Dermabrasion, which refers to sanding the exterior skin, is best used for deeper scars.Microdermabrasion is non-surgical and considered safe. As for Dermabrasion, the process may produce scarring, temporary redness and swelling, formation of acne-like pimples, hyperpigmentation and increased sensitivity to sunlight. At times, these temporary side effects can become permanent; however, this depends on the health of the skin being subjected to breast scar removal.
Techniques 4 & 5: filler and Fat Transfer Injections
filler injections are one of the most highly acclaimed ways of breast scar removal. The main benefit of these injections is that they save those who choose them the costs and risks of surgery. fillers can be injected close to the scar in order to make the skin around it appear elastic and smooth again.Some of the main problems one can face, when opting for this breast scar removal method, may include infections and allergic reactions, however, these are controllable through creams and oral antibiotics. More permanent problems include hyper-pigmentation or hypo-pigmentation around the area treated.Another non-surgical treatment for breast scar removal is fat transfer. In this method, fat cells from donor areas of the body are removed with a syringe, and then injected into the scarred skin to smooth out the skin and provide it with a fuller appearance. This breast scar removal process may take three to four treatments before results are visible. Unfortunately, this procedure is typically not as long lasting as the others due to the fact that the body absorbs the fat used over time.
