Scar Removal

Scars are a common concern and can affect appearance and self-confidence. They form as part of the skin’s natural healing process following injury, inflammation, or medical procedures. The way scars look and respond over time varies between individuals and is influenced by factors such as scar type, location, skin condition, and individual healing response.

At Cosmetic Medical Clinic, we specialise in scar management for acne scars, keloid scars, surgical scars or scars from injury. Scar management focuses on supporting gradual improvements in the appearance and texture of scars through an individualised approach. An in-person consultation is essential to assess suitability and to discuss realistic expectations based on individual circumstances.

What Scar Management May Involve

  • Non-invasive treatment options assessed on an individual basis
  • Suitable for a range of scar types and skin conditions
  • Focused in improving skin texture and overall appearance over time
  • Changes in redness or pigmentation varies between individuals
  • Areas commonly assessed include the face, body, and limbs

Treatment Approach

The approach to scar management is individualised and depends on a detailed assessment of the scar and surrounding skin. Factors such as scar type, depth, location, skin condition, and healing response are carefully considered during consultation.

Scar management may involve one or more non-invasive treatment methods selected to support gradual improvement in skin texture and appearance. The choice of treatment, number of sessions, and treatment intervals will vary between individuals and will be determined following clinical assessment.

In some cases, a combination approach may be recommended to address different aspects of the scar over time. All treatment options are discussed during consultation to ensure suitability and informed decision making.

Frequently Asked Questions

Acne scars can form after inflammatory acne and may appear as indented (pitted) areas or raised scars. The way acne scars look and respond to treatment over time differs between individuals and is influenced by factors such as scar type, skin condition, and individual healing response. Click here to learn more about our acne scar treatments >>

Hypertrophic scars are raised, thickened scars that remain confined to the original injury site. They develop as part of an overactive healing response and may appear firm or prominent, particularly in the early stages of scar formation. 

Keloid scars are raised scars that extend beyond the original injury site due to an exaggerated healing response. They are biologically unpredictable and may continue to change or recur over time. Not all keloid scars are suitable for treatment, and individual assessment is essential to evaluate risk factors and expectations.

Stretch marks form as part of the natural healing process following surgery and vary in size, shape, and appearance. Their development is influenced by factors such as skin type, wound healing response, and scar location.

Surgical scars form after surgical procedures and vary in size and shape. Laser scar removal helps smooth the appearance of these scars, making them less visible and more uniform with the surrounding skin.

Scar treatments at Cosmetic Medical Clinic focus on managing skin texture and overall appearance rather than completely removing scars. Outcomes and response to treatment varies between individuals, and a consultation is required to assess suitability and discuss realistic expectations based on individual circumstances. 

Yes, keloid scars may be treated at Cosmetic Medical Clinic following an in-person consultation.

Treatment options may include laser treatments and corticosteroid injections, depending on the type, size, location, and behaviour of the keloid scar, as well as individual skin characteristics. Our practitioner will discuss the most suitable treatment approach during your consultation.

Not all keloid scars are suitable for treatment. An individual assessment is essential to evaluate risk factors, expectations, and the likelihood of recurrence, as keloid scars can behave unpredictably.

Keloid scars develop when the body produces excess collagen during the healing process following skin injury, surgery, acne, piercings, or trauma.

Unlike normal scars, keloid scars can grow beyond the original wound area and may continue to change or recur over time. They are biologically unpredictable, and some individuals have keloid-prone skin due to genetic factors that increase the likelihood of keloid formation.

Understanding the cause and behaviour of a keloid scar is important when considering treatment options and managing expectations.

Scar removal treatment costs vary and depend on individual factors. An accurate cost estimate cannot be provided by telephone or email.

The total cost is influenced by multiple considerations, including the type of scar, its size and complexity, skin condition, and the number of sessions required. These factors can only be properly assessed during an in-person consultation.

Following consultation, a personalised treatment plan and a tailored cost estimate will be provided based on individual needs and realistic expectations.
