What it is
Scarring is a natural part of the skin’s healing process that occurs after an injury. When the skin is damaged due to acne, cuts, burns, surgeries, or other trauma, the body produces new tissue known as scar tissue to repair the wound. This results in visible marks on the skin that may alter its texture and appearance.
Causes
Understanding the causes of scarring can help in preventing and treating them effectively. Key factors include:
- Skin Type: Some skin types are more prone to scarring.
- Wound Healing: The way wounds heal can affect the likelihood and severity of scarring.
- Severity of Injury: More severe injuries are more likely to result in noticeable scars.
- Infection: Wounds that become infected tend to scar more severely.
Symptoms
Scars manifest in various forms, depending on their origin and the healing process. Common types include:
- Acne Scars: Often pitted or raised, varying in size, and typically found on the face and back.
- Surgery Scars: Usually linear, located at the site of the incision.
- Stretch Marks: Appear as streaks on the skin, commonly found on the abdomen, thighs, or upper arms.
Skincare tips
Managing scarring involves adopting effective skincare habits to help minimise the appearance of scars and promote skin health. Here are some tips:
- Regular Moisturising: Keep the skin hydrated to improve elasticity and help reduce the visibility of scars.
- Gentle Exfoliation: Gentle chemical exfoliation helps remove dead skin cells and smooth the skin’s surface.
- Sun Protection: Protect the scarred areas from the sun, as UV rays can darken scars, making them more noticeable.
- Topical Application: Specialised products containing vitamins A, C, and E help reduce the appearance of scarring.
- Cosmetic Treatments: Treatments such as laser, chemical peels, and radiofrequency microneedling have proven to yield noticeable results.

Types of Scars We can Treat
Acne Scars
These are often pitted or raised, varying in size, and typically found on the face and back. They result from severe acne where the skin is unable to regenerate tissue, creating uneven textures.
Surgery Scars
Result from surgical incisions, these are usually linear and may vary in visibility depending on the nature of the surgery and the healing process.
Stretch Marks
Considered a form of scarring, these occur when the skin is stretched rapidly due to factors like pregnancy, growth spurts, or rapid weight gain, resulting in long, narrow streaks on the skin.
