Senior Member the B spot Posted February 26, 2007 Senior Member Share Posted February 26, 2007 I have heard that Bernstein and Rose are excellent scar repair Docs. I think all of the Docs we consider to be "Top Docs" can do an excellent scar revision, but I would start with these 2 Docs, both of whom are excellent HT Docs with a very good record of success. I am sorry about your situation and I hope that any advice or information you receive here helps you out.

Bill - Seemiller Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 rodfl, I recommend consulting with a few of the coalition doctors (B Spot mentioned a few of them) to evaluate your donor scar to see how they can help you. Certainly people have been through what you are going through and have had scar repairs. My best advice at this point is consult with a few coalition docs AND do a "find" on this forum and others for "scar repair" and look at before/after photos and discuss with real patients who have been in your shoes what they've been through. Hope this helps. Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
