Punch Excision in Gangnam, Seoul
Precisely Remove Deep Acne Scars for Smoother Skin Resurfacing
Punch excision is a surgical technique used to treat isolated deep scars, especially ice pick or boxcar scars. A small circular blade removes the scarred skin, and the area is then sutured or allowed to heal naturally. This precise method permanently removes stubborn scars and is often followed by fractional laser for optimal blending.
What Is Punch Excision?
Punch excision is a surgical technique used to remove deep, narrow scars—especially ice pick or sharply defined boxcar scars. The scar is cut out with a small circular blade, and the skin is stitched or allowed to heal with a smoother texture.
The Treatment Experience in Seoul
1. Targeted Scar Selection
Each candidate scar is assessed to confirm suitability for excision. Dermatologists determine whether stitching or secondary intention healing is better.
2. Procedure & Closure
Under local anesthesia, the scar is removed with a punch tool. The site is then closed with fine sutures or left to heal with special dressings.
3. Post-Surgical Aftercare
Stitches are removed within 5–7 days, and scar-reducing ointments or laser touch-ups may follow. Follow-up visits are scheduled to monitor healing.
Visible Improvement Over Time
Treated areas become flatter and blend better with surrounding skin. Combining punch excision with laser resurfacing enhances overall skin texture.
Cost in Korea
₩80,000 to ₩150,000 per scar depending on depth and closure method. Package discounts may apply for multiple excisions during one session.
Why Korea for Scar Excision?
