Scarring — Acne, Surgical & Trauma
We assess scar type (atrophic, hypertrophic, rolling, boxcar, ice-pick) and create staged plans using conservative to advanced options.
Common Pathways
Microneedling
Collagen-induction for rolling/boxcar scars. Several sessions, minimal downtime.
Fractional Resurfacing
Laser or energy-based resurfacing for texture and depth. Downtime discussed at consult.
Subcision & Fillers
Releases tethered scars; selective use of HA filler to lift depressed areas.
TCA CROSS (ice-pick)
Spot application of TCA for narrow/deep scars. Specialist-only technique.
Scar Care & SPF
Daily SPF and topical support to optimise healing and reduce pigmentation risk.
LED Recovery
Post-procedure soothing and support for healing.
Not every method suits every scar. We’ll tailor a plan after examining your skin and medical history.
Scarring — FAQs
How many sessions will I need?
Most plans involve multiple sessions over months. We set a realistic timeline at consultation.
Will I have downtime?
Microneedling has minimal downtime; fractional resurfacing or TCA CROSS may involve days of visible healing.
Can you treat darker skin tones?
Yes—device settings and peel selection are adapted. Pre/post-treatment pigment care is essential.
