Why you might benefit from our scar improvement treatment in Cambridgeshire?

Scars can be a psychologically painful reminder of a previous incident, condition or accident. They can also make you feel self-conscious, with even scars able to be concealed with clothing or makeup resulting in lasting damage to your confidence. Thankfully, scars don’t have to be with you for life. Contrary to popular belief, there are several treatment options to explore, including topical remedies like gels and steroid injections; other non-surgical solutions such as laser treatment and cryotherapy; and surgical revision or refashioning.

Here at SKINSCAR Clinic, we’ve already supported countless individuals in their quest to remove or improve their scars, and we’re here to help you. But who exactly could benefit from the scar improvement treatments we deliver from our Cambridgeshire based clinic?

You suffer from keloids

While their cause is not yet fully understood, keloids affect a small proportion of people, with those of African, Asian or Hispanic descent particularly impacted. Keloids disrupt the way scar tissue forms, affecting its colour and texture to cause irregular scarring that is thick, raised, and doesn’t flatten or fade over time.

Instead keloids cause the formation of excessive tissue presenting scarring that’s much bigger and more pronounced than the original wound. People who suffer from keloids, and have keloid scars as a result of these formations, are excellent candidates for our scar improvement treatments in Cambridgeshire.

You have hypertrophic scarring

While often mentioned in the same breath as keloid scarring, hypertrophic scars don’t outgrow the size of the original wound. They can still be unsightly and cause cosmetic upset for the affected individual however. For people with hypertrophic scars, our scar improvement treatments provide hope and resolutions.

Treatments range from topical solutions to surgical excision and refashioning, and provide fantastic results. As with all our scar improvement services, treatments are based on a tailormade plan that suits the individual.

You’ve previously had chickenpox

Chickenpox is something of a rite of passage for children, and whether impacted by this contagious condition as a child, teen or adult, the risk of developing stubborn scars after infection is very real. Chickenpox scars can be improved just like any other scar type. Their dented appearance is able to be refashioned into a shorter, flatter, less visible scar in most cases.
