How Scar Revision Works
At Horizons, scar revision involves various techniques to minimize the appearance of scars.
This can include surgical procedures to remove the scar tissue and reposition the tissues for better healing. Treatments may also include non-invasive treatments like laser therapy or injections. The goal of scar revision treatments is to improve any scar’s appearance, texture, and function, as well as enhance overall skin aesthetics.
Benefits of Scar Revision
Reduce Scarring
Individuals who struggle with prominent scarring seek this treatment to help drastically decrease the appearance of scars. Scar revision in Winter Garden can restore the elasticity of your skin and aid with cellular reproduction, all while revitalizing your confidence.
Keloid Removal
Because of overgrown tissue beneath layers of the skin, keloids will manifest as a raised, abnormal scar that is usually a different color and texture than the natural state of your skin. Our board-certified specialists are trained for revisions and are confident that we can produce long-term effects and optimize your desired results.
Confidence Booster
At Horizons, we’re dedicated to helping our clients look and feel beautiful. So, not only are you booking with board-certified doctors who will fully understand your skin concerns, but you are bringing your long-term treatment goals to a team you can trust.
What to Expect From Scar Revision
Step 1: Consultation
Before your treatment, it is important to schedule a consultation with one of our specialists so that we can learn more about you, your medical history, your desired aesthetic results, and whether scar revision in Winter Garden is a suitable treatment for you.
Step 2: Treatment
Your treatment will begin with your specialists cleansing the desired area thoroughly, then applying anesthesia medication to the treatment area to ensure your comfort during your procedure. Then, using a scalpel or similar surgical tool, they’ll create incisions in your skin to remove the scar. Depending on the condition of your scar, we may recommend performing your treatment with laser therapy, dermabrasion, or skin bleaching agents.
Step 3: Results
The desired results may vary depending on the severity of the scar and your personalized treatment plan. It may take several months to a year for severe scarring to fade, and although we specialize in improving the appearance of scars, we cannot guarantee a complete removal.
Scar Revision Care Instructions
To ensure the longevity of your desired treatment results, it is important to remember these key factors.
- Be sure to leave the area alone after treatment.
- Do not apply any creams, scar gels, or tapes to your incision area.
- Refrain from wearing makeup and sunscreen until your skin fully heals.

Frequently Asked Questions
After your scar revision in Winter Garden, you’ll want to give your treated areas some time to heal. Be sure to avoid submerging your incision areas directly into water.
Depending on the incision area, and although temporary, you may experience mild swelling and/or bruising in your treated area following scar revision in Winter Garden. These symptoms normally occur within 3 to 5 days after surgery.
We recommend waiting 6 months to a year for the scar to fully mature before booking a treatment for scar revision. This will ensure that we are treating the scar and not active, healthy skin.
