Skin concern

Scarring

Scars are the skin's repair work, some types can be softened meaningfully, and knowing which type you have comes first.

Scarring, particularly after acne, comes in distinct types: rolling, boxcar and ice-pick depressions, raised scars, and flat marks of colour change that are technically pigmentation rather than scarring. The distinction decides the pathway.

Consultation routes often discussed include microneedling, skin peels, polynucleotides and skincare for post-blemish marks. Progress with true scarring is gradual and honest expectations are part of the plan; deep or extensive scarring may warrant discussion of options beyond our clinic.

A note on suitability. The information above is general education, not a diagnosis. The right approach for your skin can only be determined at a consultation, where your practitioner will assess suitability and discuss realistic options, which may include skincare alone, or no treatment at all.

Consultation-led care

Start with a conversation about your skin

Every treatment journey begins with an unhurried consultation, an honest assessment of your skin, your options and what is realistic for you. There is never any obligation to proceed.
