"Z" plasty for scar removal method: Correction of scar contracture deformities usually involves completely excising the scar and then repairing the wound with skin grafts or flaps. This type of reconstructive surgery is more complex than other scar removal methods, often requiring hospitalization and general anesthesia. The surgical site may take several weeks to months to fully heal, followed by the application of elastic bandages for about a year. Although this can significantly improve functional recovery in the scarred area, the transplanted skin does not perfectly match the color and structure of the surrounding skin, so the aesthetic results are not entirely satisfactory, and some patients may still need "Z" plasty. "Z" plasty is a surgical technique that repositions the scar tissue so that it aligns parallel or overlaps with the natural lines and folds of the skin, making it less noticeable. It also helps alleviate excessive skin tension caused by scar contractures. "Z" plasty is typically performed on an outpatient basis under local anesthesia, and sutures are removed about one week after the operation. Suture scars will not be very obvious but cannot be completely eliminated. Of course, not all scars are suitable for this surgery, which requires judgment by experienced plastic surgeons. Finally, it should be noted that scar tissue cannot be completely eliminated. The effectiveness of scar removal surgery depends on the size and direction of the scar, as well as the characteristics, texture of the skin, and long-term postoperative care. In the early stages after scar removal surgery, the appearance of the scar may look worse than before the operation, but don't panic. The final surgical outcome won't be evident until at least one year after the scar removal surgery.
