Can laser be used to treat for scar tissue that got stiff after surgery?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: There are several new lasers that can be used to treat scar tissue and can help with discoloration of scars and even stiffness. The best is to consult with a dermatologist or plastic surgeon who works with lasers a lot and can take you through the various options.
