Skin Graft Scars: Symptoms, Causes and Treatments
Reduce the appearance of skin graft scars with advanced treatments at Elevate Medical Aesthetics. Our personalised care helps you achieve smoother, more even-toned skin with confidence.
What Are Skin Graft Scars?
Skin graft scars are a common result of surgical procedures where skin is transplanted from one area of the body to another to restore function or appearance. While these procedures can be life-changing, the scars left behind often vary in size, shape, and texture, sometimes causing discomfort or self-consciousness.
At Elevate Medical Aesthetics in Yorkshire, we offer advanced treatments designed to minimise the appearance of skin graft scars, promoting smoother, more uniform skin.
Symptoms of Skin Graft Scars
Uneven skin texture or thickness at the graft site.
Visible differences in skin colour or pigmentation.
Raised or indented scar tissue.
Discomfort or tightness in the affected area.
Causes of Skin Graft Scars
Surgical Procedure: Scars form as a natural part of the healing process following a skin graft.
Healing Variability: Individual healing responses can influence scar size, texture, and appearance.
Skin Type: Skin tone and type may affect scar pigmentation and visibility.
Graft Type and Location: The size, shape, and placement of the graft impact the resulting scar.
