Specialized clinics use microscopic suturing and plastic closure techniques. These methods hide incisions within natural skin folds. Surgeons aim to minimize tension to prevent widening or raised tissue.</p> <ul> <li><strong>Surgical approach:</strong> Endoscopic techniques use small wrist incisions that fade into natural wrinkles.</li> <li><strong>Closure method:</strong> Subcuticular plastic stitches reduce surface marks and prevent visible stitch tracks.</li> <li><strong>Healing timeline:</strong> Fresh scars appear red for eight weeks before softening and flattening.</li> <li><strong>Advanced therapies:</strong> Clinics provide CO2 lasers and regenerative exosomes to improve long-term texture.</li> </ul> <p><strong>Bookimed Expert Insight:</strong> Korea University Anam Hospital pioneered robotic techniques that reduce scar size to one-tenth of traditional methods.
