Scar camouflage

Scar camouflage is a scar revision technique whereby the surgeon implants new grafts onto the existing scar using the FUE method. This effectively hides the scar. The doctor takes great care in strategically selecting the ideal area to harvest the FUE, ensuring the revision looks natural.
