WHAT IS PUNCH TECHNIQUES?

There are 3 techniques:

1. Punch replacement: removal of the pitted scar with a hair-transplant type punch which is then replaced with a skin graft, usually from behind the ear. This is usually the most successful method for deep scars.

2. Punch excision: removal of a pitted scar. The wound is then closed and allowed to heal.

3. Punch elevation: the scar is cut loose from the bottom, but not discarded. It is allowed to float up to the level of surrounding skin.

Punch techniques may be combined with resurfacing (dermabrasion or laser) to produce better results.

RECOVERY TIME

Recovery may take several weeks or longer.
