What is "subcision"?

Answer by  SharlaBrown (221)

Subcision is a process used to treat deep scars from skin diseases such as acne. If a scar appears as a dent or gouge in the flesh, that's when subcision is necessary. The process pulls up the skin and allows blood to pool underneath, evening out the surface of the flesh. Afterwards, other scar removal techniques can remove the mark.
