Scar Care and Reconstruction

The expert plastic surgeons at the USC Scar Care and Reconstruction Program use the latest medical technology and methods to treat some of the most complex scars caused by trauma, surgery, burns or infections, including scars that are years old.

Scar treatment has multiple benefits, including improved appearance and range of motion, and alleviation of symptoms, such as pain, itching or pins-and-needles sensations.

Our highly trained surgeons offer a wide range of treatment options, such as:

  • Fat grafting
  • Laser therapy
  • Noninvasive techniques
  • Surgical procedures

We understand that scars hold different meanings for our patients. For some people, a scar may be a physical or emotional challenge; for others, a scar may be an important part of their identity. Our team takes the time to understand each patient’s needs and designs a personalized treatment plan.
