Patients in Orange County ask about the cost factors of scar revision

Improving our appearance can renew confidence and boost self-esteem. A scar may leave us longing for a more beautiful look. Fortunately, Orange County men and women who have scars can find treatment at Orange County Cosmetic & Reconstructive Surgery Center in the gentle hands of Dr. Thuan Nguyen and our team. We offer scar revision surgery to minimize a scar so it is more consistent with surrounding skin tone and texture. We are happy to explain the treatment as well as its cost factors.

We recommend scheduling a consultation appointment to explore your candidacy for scar revision surgery. You may be an ideal candidate for surgery if you:

• Have one or several scars that bother you
• Are physically healthy
• Do not smoke
• Have realistic goals
• Do not have acne or other skin conditions in the area to be treated

Dr. Nguyen will ask you several questions about your goals, overall health, lifestyle, and the reasons you want the surgery. He will review your medical history and discuss any medical conditions and drug allergies you may have. Be prepared to talk about any current medications and herbal supplements you may take. He will ask you about previous surgeries and if you drink alcohol or smoke. All of this information is critical in determining if scar revision is right for you.

In addition to having a conversation with you, Dr. Nguyen will examine the scar or scars. He may take photographs to include in your medical record. Dr. Nguyen will discuss the likely outcome and any potential risks before developing a treatment plan. What can be expected during treatment and post care instructions after surgery will be included in the plan.

We will be happy to answer any questions you have about the cost of scar revision surgery. Anesthesia, prescription medication, post-surgery garments, and medical tests are factored in the overall cost. We can work with you to help you receive the treatment you need and we offer various payment options. If you want to explore scar revision surgery, schedule your consultation with Dr. Nguyen by calling 714-421-4022 today.
