I thought they meant that the original strips were taken in an S shape, not the scar revision. I don't know why, but some strip surgeons tend to take one strip from the left and one strip from the right. Sometimes the two strip scars do not meet up in the middle, thus the S shape.
If the strip wound is closed with too much tension, it can further distort the shape of the scar. You can tell that the previous strip excisions were closed under too much tension because of the verticle marks where the sutures were too tight. The closure on the most recent strip scar revision is much more correct. With any luck, this patient can expect the scar to be much thinner this time.
Overall, a great improvement for this patient.
