What is scar revision, and which method fits?
Scar revision makes a scar less noticeable by changing its texture, height, colour or width. Lasers smooth and blend; injections flatten raised scars; minor surgery narrows wide or stretched scars.
At YAAN Clinic in Gangnam, Seoul, the method is chosen after examination and quoted in won.
