What is Scar Revision?
Scar revision is designed to improve scars that create either a functional problem or a cosmetic concern.
Whether you are looking to refine your nasal tip, reduce a dorsal hump, correct asymmetry, or improve airflow, Dr. Karan Shetty tailors each surgery to your specific anatomy and aesthetic goals - using advanced 3D imaging (Crisalix) to help you visualise outcomes before the first incision is made.
