The Truth About Scars: What Actually Works (and What Doesn't)

Every surgery leaves a scar. There is no such thing as scarless surgery. But there is a lot you and your surgeon can do to make a scar as imperceptible as possible.
Dr. Sam Jejurikar (Dallas) and Dr. Sal Pacella (San Diego) cut through the marketing and break down what the evidence actually supports for scar care: why every scar looks thick and red at three to four weeks (and why that's normal), how scars keep remodeling for one to two years, and why patience is half the battle.
They cover silicone sheets vs. gels and why total wear time matters more than anything, how to do scar massage correctly (firm pressure, not a spa day), the real difference between a keloid and a hypertrophic scar, and when microneedling, retinoids, lasers, or steroid and 5-FU injections make sense. Plus: when a scar revision is the right call, when it's too soon, and the one popular remedy the evidence says to skip. Sorry, vitamin E.
Two plastic surgeons. No filter.
