Scars (this is household name scars) are no longer in fashion and do not paint a man - especially girls. Correction of scars - this is a very lengthy process that requires persistence and expert patient patience.
Scars are not only due to injuries and burns. Many familiar as postacne able to spoil the skin. It pull a lot of people to the nerve and purse in search of cosmetic products to mask imperfections on the face.
Behavior of scars is very insidious: normal shrink with time, and the skin in that area turns white. Others scars, on the contrary, will eventually become only brighter and richer in color, may even increase with time. And here is an urgent need to run to a dermatologist to find out the reasons for and think about Plastic Surgery.
How scars are formed
Scar formation in the skin through the four stages.
The first stage. Inflammation and epithelialization
After an injury the skin becomes inflamed. She takes up to 10 days to the dermal epithelium (this is granulation tissue, which protects against external influences) wound edges closer together and formed a protective film. Formed barely visible scar.
In order not to aggravate the situation, for this time, we can dramatically make a move that part of the body where the injury heals. Otherwise possible risk of dehiscence and may form a visible scar for life.
For the prevention of conduct every day with local antiseptic dressings, impose atraumatic sutures. In the early days required disinfection (hydrogen peroxide, etc.).
The second stage. Forming a first rumen
On the tenth day after injury and during 20 days in the granulation tissue, brings the edges of wounds which are formed collagen-elastin fibers. Scar still "young": friable, easily expandable, color - bright pink. During this period, strong physical exercise is prohibited, otherwise the wound open again.
The third stage. Formation of a mature scar
Somewhere in a month from the date of injury, and for another two months will form a mature scar. Collagen and elastin grow beams and arranged in one direction (usually along the wound line).
Tripe have less blood supply, therefore, it begins to fade. It becomes much denser than in the first month.
Physical activity during the formation of the mature scar permitted, but should be borne in mind that re-wound gap can form a keloid scar. And he already looks very unaesthetic.
The fourth stage. The final transformation of the rumen
From the fourth month after the injury, and within a half-year, the scar will ripen: the collagen fibers to tighten, and blood vessels - are dying. Scar becomes thick and pale.
Now we can go to the beautician about scar correction. The sooner you do, the easier it will be to correct.
Strong scars completely remove only Photoshop in real life - it is impossible. You can only make a cosmetically acceptable scar.
And even if the wound does not hurt the dermis and the epidermis only, everything goes by itself and the scars will be no. During this thanks to the basal layer of the epidermis: the best of its cells have the regenerative capacity, i.e. restore everything quickly.
With deep wounds all much more complicated, and depending on the species require different methods of scar correction.
normotroficheskie scars
They do not stand out especially on the body, the elasticity of scars at the skin level (ie, normal) skin color.
Basically, they do not require cosmetic surgery. But if they are very saddened by the patient is to remove this type of scar is used:
- chemical peels;
- Microdermabrasion - a popular method for those with post-acne.
atrophic scars
This is all we know of scars after sharply pohudeem (stretch marks), as well as the removal of scars after acne or unfortunate birthmark removal.
They are characterized by flabby tissues, collagen produced there already weak.
Probably the most popular type of scarring at cosmeticians, because the means for their removal in a beauty clinic is full!
hypertrophic scars
They act on the skin, have densified form, pink. Partially disappear within two years. But the wait is not worth it, they are very amenable to correction.
Proven methods for correcting such a scar:
- chemical peels (for lung scarring);
- Dermabrasion (also for lung scarring);
- laser resurfacing;
- injection of hormonal preparations: Kenalog and disprospana: introducing into the rumen zone, it dissolves and cosmetic result pleases absolutely all patients;
- phonophoresis;
- surgery: for the most difficult cases.
Keloids
Photo already presented above. They have a distinct outline of the scar. A very serious view of the scar: it painful, lends itself to relapse (ie, can re-emerge), and not always Estheticians can adjust it properly.
Here the surgery is generally not otherwise.
