“What is the best scar treatment?”

Hello,

Most hand scars cannot be revised surgically, therefore, other non-surgical methods with different lasers, RF's and IPL's are used. These can be Picoplus, Morpheus, and Lummeca, just to name a few. Custom-tailored rejuvenation creams can also help.
Good Luck!!!!

In some cases surgical scar revision can be performed. Pressure such as silicone sheets can be applied. Creams such as med derma can be used. Tincture of time is the ultimate healer as scars generally fade quite well with time, but can take over a year to do so.

We recommend Biocorneum made by Sientra to help reduce the appearance. Results are as good as silicone sheeting without the headache of constantly replacing them and having them fall off during activity. Biocorneum also offers SPF 30 protection, applied twice daily.

To get the best scar, you start with meticulous surgery and good after care. Once the incision(s) is/are healed, the best thing to use on them is silicone. Patches or tape work best but are more cumbersome and inconvenient to use. Silicone gel, applied twice a day, works well. Scar massage can be very effective but must be done multiple times throughout the day. Mederma is very popular but I feel it has no value. Scars are best manipulated when they are new and fresh. Old, mature scars usually require surgery.
