Unlike chemical therapies, laser treatment is a highly-targeted treatment for scar removal. They work by targeting the scar tissue with a focused high-energy beam of light, which converts to heat within the tissue and thereby breaks it down.
Laser scar removal treatments not only break down scar tissue but also break down the dark pigment within the scar and the surrounding skin to even out your skin tone.
We can offer a laser scar treatment for practically any type of scar, so our door is open to anyone who wants to feel more confident in their skin. Whether you want to remove minor acne scars or deep accident scars, we’ll find the right treatment for you.
There will be different preparation instructions depending on the treatment you'll be receiving. In your initial consultation, we'll tell you what needs to be done pre-treatment. For most of our treatments, no matter which technology we use, you'll need to:
We will provide you with detailed written instructions to follow after your laser scar removal sessions. Generally, you will need to:
Using patented fractional laser technology, the Fraxel dual laser safely penetrates superficial skin layers and stimulates natural collagen growth.
The Vbeam Prima uses two alternating wavelengths of 595nm and 1064nm to target blood vessels. It's a non-invasive procedure with minimal downtime, and it's virtually pain-free.
We use the M-Pen for skin needling. It creates punctures across your skin, less than a millimetre in diameter, to promote collagen and elastin production. We also offer Vivace RF microneedling, which combines fractional radiofrequency technology with microneedling to encourage collagen growth and tighten the skin in one painless procedure.
Whatever your skin issues, our full-service medical team can design a personalised treatment plan that combines any of our skin care therapies.
The colour of your scars gives you an indication of how well they’re healing. We will carefully assess your scars to ensure that laser treatment is the best approach.
Scars can appear red, pink, purple or brown if they still have active blood vessels coursing through them. Your body will direct blood to the area to help heal the wound. In some instances, we may be able to use laser treatments to remove red scars, although we may also recommend that you wait for the scar to fully heal before seeking treatment.
Scar tissue does not produce melanin, which is why healed scars often appear white, light brown or light pink (depending on your skin tone). We believe laser treatments work best on fully healed scars. While it can be difficult to stimulate new pigmentation, our lasers can improve the texture of white scar tissue.
You’ll hear plenty from our dermatologists at your consultation. For now, have a read of what our clients have to say about the results we deliver.
Our scar removal therapies are non-invasive and virtually pain-free. You may feel slightly uncomfortable while receiving a skin needling or laser treatment, but we can apply a topical numbing cream to reduce painful sensations. If you're concerned about pain, we can test a small section of your skin to see how your body reacts before treatment.
No. We can reduce the appearance of old and new scars with our laser scar removal. Different treatments will take varying lengths of time and have different results, but our laser removal procedures will reduce the appearance of your scar no matter the age.
We can treat post-surgical scars as soon as the stitches have been removed or when the scar has fully healed over. We can treat acne scarring once the inflammation has reduced.
You may experience a slight change in the pigment of your skin post-treatment, but this will go away in time. And your skin may be red and itchy immediately after your laser therapy session, but you can apply a cold compress, which will reduce any adverse side effects.
