White area's or spots of the skin can occur without any reason or after an injury or burns. These areas can be camouflaged by tattooing them with skin colored pigments.They can be corrected permanently by very thin split skin grafting & making the area raw or by punch grafting. This procedure is done under local or general anesthesia as an out patient without any stay at the hospital. Sometimes the patient may require more than one sitting to get a satisfactory result. Tattooing or grafting is not done until the white spots are stable and fixed inside. The color of the tattoo may gradually fade with time, but this can be corrected by adding some pigment in the lesion later.
When the skin continuity is broken by a cut , surgery or injury , the body forms scar tissues to unite the cut ends. The amount of scarring depends on the person's age, heredity factors, race, and the type, direction, depth, size and location of the wound. When a scar is removed a new scar is formed by the body in its place. Thus a scar cannot be removed - it can only be revised. By surgery, many scars can be improved upon in their appearance , or the amount of scar reduced, or disfigurement minimized. Scar correction operation is not undertaken until the original scars have fully matured which is usually six months after the first operation. There are rare exceptions to this rule. There are also scars that cannot be improved upon by surgery. Most scar revision procedures are done under local or general anesthesia and do not require hospitalization.
