I have deep burn scars on the back of my right knee and I'm wondering if plastic surgery could help remove them. How effective is it for this kind of scarring and what should I expect from the procedure?

Plastic surgery can be effective in improving the appearance and functionality of deep burn scars, although it won't fully remove them. It can reduce the size, depth, and prominence of scars, and help restore functionality if the scar is constricting movement. The specific procedures used will depend on the location, size, and depth of the scars, as well as the patient's individual goals
