Abstract

The paper analyzes the features of correcting postoperative scars against the backdrop of a dynamically expanding segment of aesthetic medicine. The scientific and practical relevance of the topic is due to the increase in the volume of surgical interventions and, consequently, the growing number of patients with cicatricial skin changes that substantially worsen psychoemotional status and quality-of-life indicators. The aim of the study is to substantiate and present the author’s integrative dermopigmentation technique as an effective and minimally traumatic method for camouflaging postoperative scars. The methodological basis includes a systematic review of current scientific publications and clinical guidelines, as well as a descriptive analysis of a clinical observation. The obtained data demonstrate that traditional approaches — surgical revision and laser therapy — are characterized by substantial limitations, among which are the risk of recurrence and high cost. The proposed integrative strategy, combining medical principles, cosmetology approaches, and micropigmentation techniques, provides a pronounced aesthetic effect and a significant improvement in patient-oriented outcomes. It is concluded that this approach expands the therapeutic toolkit of specialists and facilitates the completion of rehabilitation after surgery, increasing patient satisfaction. The material presented in this paper will be of interest to plastic surgeons, dermatologists, cosmetologists, and professionals in the field of permanent makeup and medical micropigmentation.
