Scars & Stretch Marks

Scars and stretch marks are common and normal — scars form when skin is damaged, and stretch marks appear when skin is stretched beyond its usual limits. Both can be difficult to change, and treatments aim to improve their appearance rather than remove them completely.

What treatment options are available for scarring and stretch marks at MedAesthetics?

We offer a range of medical treatment options for scarring and stretch marks. Depending on your individual assessment, options may include:

• Venus Viva MD is a non-surgical skin-resurfacing treatment that uses radiofrequency energy to stimulate collagen production and may help improve skin texture and tone. It may be used to help with a range of skin concerns, including scars and stretch marks.
• Fraxel CO2 Laser uses focused beams of light to remove damaged skin and encourage the growth of new skin cells, and may help with concerns including scars, stretch marks and hyperpigmentation. As an ablative laser, CO2 treatment involves downtime and carries risks; recovery, aftercare and suitability are discussed at consultation.

Individual results vary, and all cosmetic procedures carry risks and possible side effects — these are discussed with you at your consultation. Treatment at MedAesthetics is overseen by Dr Ehsan Jadoon (MED0001586460) — Registered Medical Practitioner (general registration).
