Can they actually remove the scar and replace with skin from another part of the body?

The answer is yes. Scar revision is great. Depending on how large the scar is determines whether they need to take skin from another part of the body. If it is a small scar the Dr. can usually just remove the scar and close the wound. If it is a large scar or an abnormally shaped scar then they would need to do a full thickness skin graft (Replace with skin from another part of the body). Hope this helps. Be sure to have a plastic surgeon do the procedure and research the surgeon first.
