SURGICAL & WOUND SCAR Removal Specialist in Georgia

Surgical and traumatic wound scars are often a nuisance, especially those that are raised and/or a different color from their surrounding skin.

Depending on their cause and location, scars come in all shapes and sizes. Some fade in time thanks to our bodies’ natural healing process. Others can be treated with over-the-counter remedies such as Vitamin E oil. Those that linger, however, might need the professional skills of a board-certified dermatologist, such as a member of our team at Georgia Skin Cancer & Aesthetic Dermatology.
