Scars are the body’s response to healing. Sometimes it ends up in Unfavourable or unsightly scar formation. We at Skin & Scar care clinic, specialize in scar improvement by using multimodality treatments combining lasers and TED (Transepidermal Drug Delivery, Chemicals including steroids, Insulin, HA, PLLA , CAHA and 5HU) with different treatments to make scars pliable, soft and liess visible, tailored to your needs. Scar improvement is a gradual process and multiple sessions are required to achieve good results.
In darker skin type more sessions are required with a careful approach to avoid PIH ( post inflammatory Hyperpigmentation, darker colour after laser treatment).
Surgical scars, Acne scars, Trauma marks, Stretch marks, Chickenpox scars , Burn scars or raised keloids — we understand how scars impact not just your skin but your confidence. Our specialist-led Scar Management Clinic offers the latest in evidence-based treatments, including medical-grade lasers, injectables, and advanced skin therapies to visibly improve all types of scars.
Understanding Scars
Scars form as your body’s natural way of healing after injury, surgery, acne, or burns. But not all scars behave the same.
Types of Scars We Treat
Surgical Scars
Linear or raised scars from procedures like C-sections, facelifts, or laparoscopic surgeries
Traumatic Scars
From accidents, cuts, or burns
Acne Scars
Atrophic (pitted), rolling, boxcar, or ice-pick scars
Hypertrophic Scars
Thickened, raised, remain within wound margins
Keloids
Overgrown, raised scars extending beyond original injury
Contracture Scars
From burns, often restricting movement
Pigmented or Discoloured Scars
Red, dark, or white scars disrupting tone
Treatment Options Tailored to You

1. Laser Scar Revision (Core Treatment)
Our clinic uses fractional, ablative and vascular:
– Smooth uneven texture

Lasers we use:

2. Injectables & Supportive Therapies
