C-Section Scar Removal

Caesarean, or c-section, childbirths can leave a tell-tale scar behind, changing the appearance of the abdomen. Some c-section incisions heal smoothly, leaving only a flat scar as a reminder. Others are more noticeable, restricting the skin movement or disfiguring the lower abdomen. At LM Medical NYC in Manhattan, we have both a board certified dermatologist and plastic surgeon that can collaborate to determine the best scar treatments, including c-section scar removal.

One of the most effective options for reducing the appearance of c-section scars is using silicone sheets. These sheets can be used as a preventive measure to improve the healing process of the skin. However, these must be used during the healing process to have the best effects. For existing c-section scar removal, other treatments or plastic surgery may be necessary.

Surgical and Non-Surgical C-Section Treatment

Some c-section scars can look uneven or cause the skin to pucker. Others are only a flat, discolored line across the belly. If you want c-section scar removal, treatment depends on the severity of skin or tissue deformity. Most c-section scars can be faded or minimized with non-surgical treatments. Laser therapy and other skin treatments can be used to help with discoloration and improve the texture.

When the skin and tissue have been deformed from a c-section, surgical c-section scar revision may be required. Dr. Lesley Rabach is a double board certified plastic surgeon who has the experience and skills to alter the position and appearance of a c-section scar. Revision surgery can help create a flatter, less noticeable scar.

If you are unhappy with the appearance of your c-section scar, contact us at LM Medical NYC. We have multiple options for c-section scar removal and treatment. Call our office to book your consultation at our clinics in Greenwich Village and the Upper East Side.

  • Dr. Morgan Rabach and her staff provide top tier care and excellent service. Dr. Rabach is well-versed in the latest research. She made lots of time to discuss my dermatological history (what’s worked, what hasn’t worked, what hasn’t been tried) and all the available treatments to find the best path forward. She didn’t settle - pushing to make sure I got the best results possible. Would recommend without any reservations!

  • I have been seeing both Dr. Lesley & Dr. Morgan now for almost about three years now. Each time is better than the last. I trust them for natural results & they always deliver. What I value most is that they are never pushy! Always open, honest, and they are just overall good people.

  • The staff are incredibly friendly and so helpful. The wait times are very short, the space is clean and modern, and they're very quick to respond to questions over the phone or email. I needed a detailed receipt for my insurance and they gave me two different versions until my insurance was satisfied. The doctors are friendly, laid back, and really listen which is awesome. Would highly recommend!!
