Removing burning scars can involve several treatment options to improve their appearance and function.
The treatment approach depends on the severity, location, and type of burn scar. Here's a breakdown of potential methods:
-
Compression Therapy: Wearing tight, supportive clothing called compression garments over the burn area can help the skin heal.
-
Skin Grafting: For more severe burns, a skin graft may be necessary.
-
Surgery for Contractures: If the burn scar has tightened areas of your body, causing contractures that limit movement, surgery can release these areas and improve mobility.
