Andrew experienced a traumatic car accident that left him with multiple lacerations, avulsions, and significant soft tissue damage to his face, including his left forehead, eyelids, and temple. After receiving emergency care elsewhere, he turned to me to help restore his appearance. His journey to recovery started with diligent wound care, including gentle cleansing and later applying scar gel to prevent the thickening of scar tissue.
At the three-month mark, the first scar revision surgery was performed, which included careful excision and reconstruction of the deep scarring on his left forehead, temple, and eye areas to improve their appearance. Four months later, he underwent a series of 4 IPL laser treatments to help improve the pigmentation of the scars. Three months after the IPL treatments, a second scar revision surgery took place on his left brow, forehead, and cheekbone area to further improve the appearance of scarring.
In the final stretch, at 9 months after the scar revision, Andrew was interested in dermabrasion to smooth out his scars on the left forehead and cheek area and improve any lingering redness or inflammation. After this procedure, his scars softened further, and his complexion became more even. Now, more than a year and three months after his final dermabrasion, he is thrilled with his transformation, saying:
“Dr. Schmidt is a talented plastic surgeon. He has talked through many procedure options and provided great advice for a plastic surgery care plan for my facial scars. He is so focused and detailed to make sure he is achieving the best results possible, which has given me great confidence. I am pleased with my results and know they will get even better with time. I would highly recommend Dr. Schmidt for any plastic surgery or cosmetic facial procedures. He is patient, thorough, and professional as is his entire staff.”
