CAN ANYONE RECOMMEND A GOOD DOCTOR FOR PUNCH EXCISION IN CHICAGO?NO, but I have had PUNCH graph, not sure if that is what you mean.
ALSO CAN SOMEONE EXPLAIN TO ME HOW SUCH LITTLE SCARS ONLY A COUPLE OF MILLIMETERS CAN BE SUTURED? IS THE NEEDLE LIKE SUPER THIN AND TINY? punch graph is like a cookie cutter, they extract the scar hole, and prepare it for subsequent installation via a donation substitute somewhere from around your ear. They introduce this new sample into the target area. Then they tape it up until it fuses with surrounding skin. It will look like a pimple for 6 weeks until you are eligible for spot derm on the location to sand it down so that a flush situation is what you have.
IF THE SCAR IS NOT DEEP OR BIG IS PUNCH EXCISION NOT RECOMMENDED? See dr. to tell you this.
HOW MANY STITCHES DO THEY USUALLY USE? zero
I HAVE SEVERAL LITTLE SCARS THAT AREN'T THAT VISIBLE UNLESS I STARE POINT BLANK INTO THE MIRROR. CAN ANYTHING BE DONE FOR THESE? BESIDES THE LASER TREATMENTS AND TOPICAL CREAMS IVE ALREADY TRIED. If you can only see them when you stare tediously at them for long periods of time, then, no most drs probably would not do any surgerys on that, lasers, creams, and other junk, YES of course!!
WHAT ARE THE CHANCES OF COMPLICATIONS AND MY SCARS BECOMING WORSE FROM PUNCH EXCISION? If the dr. is skilled, then probably not much to worry about, just do not pick at it or something while it is healing. Duh!
As a final thought, I consider almost all scar treatments to be like a giant garbage pail, and therefore many should rightfully be placed inside the pail as representation for what they mostly are, now with that said, I have tried all reasonable options, and I do reccommend PUNCH graph with spot derm as my top rated procedure. It is the only way to eliminate those holes to be sure. I estimate about 85% improvement on the target site in question I had addressed. I do think you want a good dr for this though, to lower risk, and max-out performance. My dr also injected silicone ontop of the graph as and additional bonus! Usually I am critical of most procedures, but this one is worth it in alot of situations.
PLEASE HELP ME!----->consider yourself helped
