Subcutaneous Incision - Subcision

Subcutaneous incision, also referred to as subcision, is used to manage rolling acne scars, and certain depressed acne scars. Subcision is an easy surgery carried out using local anesthesia. This type of scars show a treatment obstacle that might not be solved by standard topical creams. These sorts of scars have an underlying level of coarse bands or scar skin cells group that might not be breached by ointments and lotions.

Individuals with rolling acne scars are ideally cured using this procedure. Rolling scars create pits with soft points shared with typical skin and are seldom triggered by burst acne on the face but also on other areas of the body such as under arms and necks.

• Their primary framework containing fibrous tissue bands bring themselves efficiently to subcutaneous incision methods that are able to fix the depression. The procedure has the ability to effectively manage rolling scars. However, sometimes, it can also be applied to manage pits and ice pick scars which are the more general acne scarring on the face.

How Subcutaneous Incision Works?

Subcutaneous Incision is a surgical technique of skin scar extraction. The procedure begins with the practitioner administering a very little amount of local anesthesia upon the facial skin.

• As soon as the anesthesia works, a particular kind of bevel needle is inserted, alongside the scar site.
• The trimming side of the needle is pointed to the acne scar and carefully steered near the fibrous bands.
• The needle has a piston-like system whereby its cutting side could be gradually shifted to the scar site in the absence of causing unwanted incisions into the nearby skin.
  

• Gradually, the cutting side of the needle can trim using the fibrous bands.

Due to the fact that the cutting is carried out at the subcutaneous level, i.e. just under the epidermis which is lacking considerable vascular networking of capillaries, there is absolutely no concern of trimming the blood source to the skin or resulting in excessive blood loss.

When the acne scar was swelling extremely, the cutting of fibrous bands levels its look. If the acne scar was triggering the formation of scar tissue, the trimming of fibrous bands ascertains that newer, connective tissue takes control of the cured spot that eventually reduces the developing scar tissue.

Moreover, the internal openings imply that the bruising is restricted mainly below the skin's surface with minimal level of swelling forming on the surface. The inner cutting of fibrous band promotes the skin's recovery method. This can possibly be recognized as the type of skin renewal induced by cosmetic therapies which lead to minor damaging after the skin to starts its normal recovery process.

This makes sure that the scar spot is completely recovered and any sign of the scar, consisting of pigmentation areas, is eventually removed without the need of more cosmetic therapies.

Side effects ofSubcision

There are little or no medical risks if carried out by skilled plastic surgeons or skin care specialist. However like any type of surgical procedure, there will often be post-operation problems such as infection, skin scarring and skin discoloration but they can possibly be solved with ideal topical treatment recommended by your dermatologists.
