Happy pto be invited to share my experience on treating Asian scars at the Malaysia Society of Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery meeting in Kuala Lumpur.
Asian skin behaves differently from lighter skin tones when it comes to healing. It is thicker, has higher skin tension, and shows a stronger inflammatory response. Maintained with medical grade scar gel and silicone sheets. These factors make scar treatment more complex and requires a tailored approach.
Over the years, I’ve developed a treatment protocol that combines surgery and complementary non-surgical therapies with vascular and fractional lasers and injectables. This approach has shown effective improvement in scar outcomes and patient satisfaction.
It’s always rewarding when one’s work has been recognised and even more meaningful to exchange ideas with fellow surgeons, colleagues, and associates✨✨
