Scar removal is one of the most common concerns we receive at our Melbourne clinic. Scarring can occur after episodes of inflammation, infection or trauma to the skin. Common causes include acne, post-surgical wounds, post-accident wounds, pregnancy and rapid weight gain or loss.

What are the different types of scars?

Scars are caused by trauma or injury to the skin, and arise as the skin begins its natural healing process. There are many different types of scars and skin irregularities, including:

superficial textural changes
deep ice-pick scars
raised hypertrophic scars, which occur when the wound healing process creates excess scar tissue, such as with keloids
depressed atrophic scars, often associated with acne scarring
stretch marks
post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, when the skin is darker than normal; and
hypopigmentation, when the skin is lighter than normal

For best results, we usually approach the scarring with multiple modalities, which can be a combination of the following options, depending on the patient’s unique condition:
