Scars can be a result of many things in life: perhaps a physical trauma or burn, following a surgery or even a lingering reminder of Acne. They can be colourless or pigmented; flat or raised; and establishing the best course of treatment depends upon a thorough consultation and understanding of the patient’s goals. While it is impossible to erase a scar completely, our experience in treating scarring – alongside our state-of-the-art devices – enables us to stimulate collagen production and refine the skin, for a smoother-looking canvas

Skin resurfacing with the Erbium:YAG laser is often our first line treatment for fading the appearance of scarring; however, where the scars are more dense or severe, we often combine this with other treatment modalities such as radiofrequency micro-needling using the Morpheus8 system. Occasionally, injections of dermal filler can help to plump out the depression in the case of deeper, isolated scars – and in the most severe cases, acne scars can be surgically excised, and exchanged for a neater, more linear scar (although this is reserved for only the most severe cases). Some doctors also advocate the use of platelet rich plasma to improve scarring, although we have seen limited evidence for this and do not use it in our practice.

From the moment I walked through the door I was treated so well by every member of staff, all so friendly and helpful. I received Halo and BBL I was a little nervous but Dr Rhona completely put my mind at rest.
After my treatments I was taken good care of and Dr Darren came and reassured me too which was an added bonus. I returned a few weeks later for my checkup and again was treated so well, Dr Darren remembered me which was lovely.
I am delighted with the results of my treatment I feel my skin looks so much fresher and this in turn has lifted my self esteem which had previously been at a low point. I highly recommend both these treatments and would not hesitate to return to Dr Darren’s Clinic in the future. Thank you to all again.

From my very first contact with yourselves to the minute I left the attention to detail and client service was impeccable, every member of staff I came into contact with was so friendly and professional put me at ease so much. Sometimes I get a little overwhelmed with environments like this however this was furthest from my thoughts on arrival.
My consultation answered all concerns Dr Rhona explained what would give me best results as to what I was looking to achieve . As I was travelling from a far your team kindly got my booked in same day for my treatment so I didn’t have to make another journey. Upon my procedure which again every step of the way was explained my therapist was so attentive talked me through everything step as she was carrying out my treatment and explained all my after care.
I am currently in day 3 of the Halo treatment and everything is exactly what I was told to expect. I am now looking forward to seeing end result. Thank you to you and your team .

Our bespoke laser treatments enable us to rejuvenate the skin and lessen the appearance of scarring, while stimulating new collagen and refining the texture of the skin. However, it is impossible to ever completely reduce the appearance of scarring, and this must always be taken into account before starting treatment.
We use cold air to cool the skin and provide a comforting sensation during the treatment, distracting from any heat generated as a by product of the treatment.
When resurfacing scars, we typically use quite aggressive settings and downtime of up to 10 days may be required. You might also experience crusting in treated areas, which will fall away within the week, revealing smooth new skin beneath. It is advisable to use a mild skincare routine and a high SPF in the days following.
Depending on the type of scarring you have we will likely recommend a course of treatment – which may involve multiple types of laser, with additional filler appointments. Ultimately, the course of treatment we recommend will be based on your own specific circumstances and needs.
