Scar Revision Laser

The Dr. Nassif Iconic Scar Laser is a scar revision treatment that aims to reduce the visible appearance of scarring on the skin. There are many types of scarring, including: fine line scars, keloid scars, scar contractures, pitted or sunken scars and hypertrophic scars, which occur as a result of injury to the skin. The skin naturally develops scar tissue to help repair a wound in the skin, knitting the skin and tissues back together. The break in tissues at the injured site causes a build-up of collagen, which helps to strengthen the wound, but is also different in colour and texture to usual skin tissue.

Scars will often start off looking red and lumpy, that will even out and fade in colour over time. This does not always mean they will totally disappear, which can cause some frustration if they are particularly visible to others. A consultation at Nassif Medspa will assess the type of scarring you have before recommending the approach that is needed to reduce its appearance and the realistic results you can expect to achieve.

The Dr. Nassif Iconic Scar Laser uses fractional laser, ablative and non ablative wavelengths and IPL/BBL to deliver a fast, simple and effective solution for the reduction or removal of scars. The laser works by delivering pulses of energy that heat the dermis at the depth of the scar, whilst preserving the surface layer of the skin (epidermis). This breaks down the scar tissue, encouraging new tissues to be produced that remodel the dermis. This in turn helps to improve the texture, colour and tension of the skin, whilst also promoting renewal and regeneration of skin cells.

Results can be determined by the size, age and classification of the scarring, which will also influence the amount of treatment sessions that will be needed to achieve the desired result. An immediate improvement may be seen following the first procedure, with the outcome developing further over a period of months and as the treatment course progresses.

FAQs

Am I suitable for scar revision laser?

We can treat all types of scarring at Nassif MedSpa, but a consultation will be needed to assess the type of scarring you have, the treatment course that is needed and the individual results that you can expect. Many of our scar revision patients are often referred to us post-surgery, as early intervention is likely to produce a more successful outcome.

Is this treatment safe?

Scar revision laser is a safe and effective treatment for reducing the appearance of a scar on many areas of the face and body. The professionals at Nassif MedSpa are highly trained and experienced and have an expert understanding of how the procedure works and the type of results that can be produced.

Will it hurt?

The treatments are quick and easy and are often very comfortable. If needed, a topical or local anaesthetic can be administered to make the treatment as comfortable as possible. Cooling packs can also be used to help soothe and calm the skin after the procedure.

Are there any side effects or risks?

This treatment uses light and heat to address the damaged cells, causing minor side effects in some cases, including: swelling, itching and redness. These are temporary effects which will often have disappeared within a couple of days. Your recovery will be monitored by your aesthetic professional and any concerns will be addressed at any time.

How much downtime can I expect?

Laser treatments do not often cause the patient any significant downtime. Any sensitivity at the treatment site will settle fairly rapidly and does not usually cause any disruption to your normal daily routine.

I had the best experience at NassifMD Medspa UK. The spa itself is beautiful and luxurious and in a great location on the Quays. On arrival I was met by Amanda and immediately I felt relaxed and at ease. My consultation with Dr Jamie was a joy ! His knowledge and experience is vast and nothing was too much trouble when faced with my endless questions and concerns. I was given several options of treatments and between us we decided on a course of action …. The results ? Well I’m absolutely thrilled ! I can’t wait for my next appointment.

I have had many services here and the service is not only impeccable the knowledge Amanda gives is fantastic. The Dr’s and nurses at Dr.Nassif’s medical spa are amazing. My hydrafacial was the best one I’ve ever had. I get PRP and profhilo, also the best. I’ve recently just had nucleofill for my under eyes & with what was left over the Dr noticed I had a slight outbreak of spots and administered the nucleofill there. 1 day post treatment my eyes look much better and my spots have started to clear up! The initiative and attention to detail on top of already an amazing treatment is what makes this clinic the best I’ve ever been too. I won’t go anywhere else. Thanks team for being so amazing! I wouldn’t trust my face with anyone else!

I’ve had 2 courses of Halo laser and my experience with Nassif Medical Spa has been amazing. Special thanks to Amanda who really goes the extra mile when caring for her clients. I’ve felt so supported by her throughout the entire experience from initial consultation through to aftercare and I throughly recommend her and this clinic! Amanda provides the compete package including well informed guidance, effective treatments and thoughtful aftercare. Her holistic approach will help you not only get the results you need but also work to then maintain them afterwards. Thanks again to her and the team! A well deserved 5/5 - I can’t fault them!

My 1st visit to this clinic , first impressions - such a beautiful well run , professional atmosphere. Amanda and staff helped put me at my ease and explained everything before my treatment. This included previous clients photos of before and after treatments and a thorough discussion of my needs, which put me at ease. My rosacea is much improved already after treatment and I look forward to my return for follow up and a second treatment.
