When the skin is in the process of recovering from an injury, whether the result of an accident, surgery, a burn, or acne, scarring will occur wherever multiple layers of the skin have been affected. Once a scar forms, it is permanent, but it may be made less visible or relocated surgically.
With very few exceptions most people are self-conscious about facial scars. Some people may also experience diminished functioning of the eyes, mouth, or nose dues to scarring. If you think facial scar revision could improve your appearance, your self-confidence, or your level of facial functioning, read more and contact our office. Dr. Gross may be able to help you.
Due to Dr. Gross’ training in Facial Reconstruction and his vast laser expertise, we receive a number of referrals for laser scar therapy. “The Pulsed Dye Laser has been a tremendous breakthrough in scar treatment and provides relief to many of my patients without the need for surgery”, states Dr. Gross.
Although Dr. Gross is strictly a cosmetic surgeon (our practice does not participate with or accept insurance payment), the costs of laser scar therapy are very reasonable. Call Primera for more information on Scar Therapy.

Will I have scarring, and what will it look like?
Usually, facial injuries and lacerations can be improved with laser therapy and time. Certainly, there will be some signs of the injury, but these lessen as time goes by. In children, these typically show up as a bright pink line for several months following the surgical repair. This tends to fade in a 6 to 12-month period, and it is important to keep sun block on and to avoid direct sun exposure.
What can be done to improve residual scarring?
Dr. Gross frequently uses Pulse Dye Laser to improve scars. Other techniques include Dermabrasion, Microdermabrasion or scar revision using techniques such as W-plasty or Z-plasty. It is very important to follow wound care instructions given to you by Dr. Gross to achieve best results.
You are by far the best physician I have ever had..I was very apprehensive to undergo plastic surgery on my face, but your professionalism put me at ease. I receive compliments daily on my “youthful” new look, it’s all because of your expertise and kindness, Thanks!
Sincerely,
Anita
To say that I am pleased seems so inadequate for the way I feel about the surgery, the pre-op treatment, the post op-treatment and the entire experience was extremely superb. You are without a doubt, and with no exception, the very best at what you do.
Warmest Regards,
Nancy
