Surgical scars can be a lasting reminder of a medical procedure, injury, or past condition. While they are a natural part of the healing process, many people seek ways to reduce their appearance and improve skin texture. The good news? Microneedling, also known as Dermapen treatment, is an advanced, non-surgical procedure that helps smooth, refine, and fade surgical scars—without the need for invasive treatments.

At Dr. Leah Clinics, we specialise in cutting-edge, non-surgical cosmetic treatments to help you achieve flawless skin safely and effectively. If you're searching for scar removal near me, you've come to the right place. In this blog, we’ll explore how microneedling can reduce surgical scars, why it’s one of the most effective scar treatment options, and how exosomes can accelerate the healing process.

How does microneedling help with surgical scars?

Microneedling is a non-surgical cosmetic procedure that stimulates the skin’s natural healing response. Using a device such as Dermapen, microneedling creates tiny, controlled micro-injuries in the skin. This triggers collagen and elastin production, helping to break down old scar tissue and promote new, healthy skin cells. 

• Reduces scar depth and texture irregularities
• Stimulates collagen to smooth out uneven skin
• Improves skin elasticity and tone
• Minimally invasive with little to no downtime 

If you’re looking for scar removal in London, microneedling is one of the most effective and accessible scar treatment in London options available.

Surgical scars often appear thick, raised, or sunken. Microneedling works by gradually remodeling the scar tissue, encouraging the skin to regenerate itself for a smoother, more even complexion over time.

Microneedling for scars on the face and body

One of the key benefits of microneedling is its versatility it can be used to treat scars on both the face and body, wherever you have concerns. Whether you’re dealing with post-surgical scars on the abdomen, or acne scars on the face, microneedling can help improve the skin’s texture and appearance. This makes it an excellent option for those seeking comprehensive scar tissue therapy that works across multiple areas.

Microneedling vs. other scar reduction treatments

While treatments like scar laser treatment in London and chemical peels can also address surgical scars, microneedling offers unique advantages:

• Safe for all skin types– Unlike some laser scar removal in London treatments, microneedling is suitable for all skin tones with minimal risk of pigmentation changes.
• Minimal downtime– Unlike deeper peels or surgical scar revision, microneedling has a quick recovery period.
• Long-term collagen stimulation– The effects continue to improve over several months as new collagen forms.

For optimal results, microneedling can be combined with other scar tissue therapy treatments, such as Exosomes or PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) therapy.

Exosome therapy: The ultimate skin regeneration boost

For those looking to accelerate healing and enhance their microneedling results, Exosome therapy is a game-changer. Exosomes are powerful cellular messengers derived from stem cells, designed to supercharge the skin’s repair process.

When applied after microneedling, exosomes:

• Reduce inflammation and speed up recovery
• Stimulate collagen production more effectively 
• Boost overall skin rejuvenation
• Improve skin texture and elasticity even faster  

Exosome therapy is an advanced addition to microneedling, ensuring faster, more noticeable improvements in surgical scars.

What to expect from microneedling for surgical scars?

Each treatment plan is tailored to your specific scar type and skin concerns. Typically, we recommend a course of 3-6 sessions, spaced 4-6 weeks apart, for optimal results. 

Immediately after the treatment, you may experience mild redness, similar to a light sunburn, which subsides within 24-48 hours.

Over the following weeks, new collagen forms, gradually improving the appearance of the scar.

Full results develop over several months, as the skin continues to regenerate.

Many clients who have undergone laser scar removal before and after comparisons find microneedling to be an effective, low-risk alternative to scar laser treatment experiences. Microneedling is a safe, effective, and clinically proven solution to improving the appearance of surgical scars without the need for invasive procedures.

In the ever-evolving world of medical aesthetics, PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) treatment has emerged as a cutting-edge solution for various concerns. From enhancing hair growth to rejuvenating the skin, PRP offers a natural and effective approach. In this blog series on PRP, we will delve into the latest discoveries and medical advancements surrounding PRP treatment. Today’s post will focus on the exciting evolution of PRP for hair and scalp treatment, and in upcoming posts we will discuss PRP under eyes treatment and PRP facial treatment at the renowned Dr Leah Clinic in London.

What is PRP?

PRP treatment harnesses the natural power of your own blood’s platelets to rejuvenate skin and stimulate hair growth. PRP treatment, or platelet-rich plasma treatment, harnesses the regenerative power of platelets found in our blood. The science behind PRP treatment lies in the growth factors present in platelets. These growth factors stimulate tissue regeneration, promoting healing and rejuvenation. When PRP is injected into the desired area, such as the scalp for hair regrowth, under the eyes for rejuvenation, or the face for a more youthful appearance, the growth factors in PRP stimulate collagen and elastin production. This leads to firmer, tighter skin with improved texture and elasticity in the areas treated.

PRP has revolutionised the field of medical aesthetics in a number of ways including its versatility as it offers remarkable benefits for hair regrowth, under-eye rejuvenation, and facial renewal. Dr Leah Clinic in London provides a trusted haven for individuals seeking these transformative treatments. Whether you desire a luscious head of hair, radiant under-eye area, or youthful complexion, PRP treatment at Dr Leah Clinic offers a pathway to rejuvenation and renewed confidence.

PRP Before and After

PRP Hair and Scalp Treatment

PRP Hair Treatment is a great option to help naturally stimulate hair growth vs more invasive options such as a hair transplant.

Both men and women can experience hair loss later in life, which is commonly caused by a hereditary condition called androgenic alopecia, also known as male or female pattern hair loss. This condition occurs with aging and is characterised by a gradual thinning of the hair, primarily on the top and front of the scalp. Hormonal changes, medications, illnesses, stress, and other factors can also contribute to hair loss in both genders. Additionally, taking hormones can impact hair growth.

One of the most exciting and recent discoveries in the field of hair loss treatment is the use of Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) injections. PRP has emerged as a potential breakthrough in combating hair loss, offering the possibility of stopping and even reversing the condition. Recent studies have shown promising results, with clinical evaluations demonstrating a significant increase in hair count and density just three months after the last injection. PRP hair treatment works by promoting hair growth at the follicular level, by injecting concentrated platelets into the scalp, activate dormant hair follicles, promoting hair regrowth. This natural treatment option provides hope for those seeking effective and non-invasive solutions for hair loss and at Dr Leah Clinic where we conduct PRP hair London treatment we are seeing impressive results.

Indeed PRP hair treatment is fast gaining popularity with celebrities such as Kourtney Kardasian discussing having the treatment as a non-surgical option for stimulating hair growth. It has become a popular choice next to hair transplant procedures which in some cases can result in scarring, an unnatural appearance and high cost of up to £15,000 - especially when multiple treatments are often needed. Given the competitive PRP hair treatment UK prices where at Dr Leah Clinic prices at £1,800 for a complete course of three, it’s an appealing, less invasive, cost-effective alternative to surgery.

What is PRP?

PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) is a natural treatment that is not only a great solution to hair loss and skin rejuvenation. But is also an extremely effective solution to under-eye concerns such as circles, puffiness and undereye bags.

PRP is used by taking a small amount of blood from the client, this is then placed into a centrifuge which separates a valuable platelet-rich plasma that when injected into the concerned area triggers the bodies natural healing response. This strengthens collagen and elasticity which results in a refreshed, rejuvenated and youthful appearance.

Am I suitable for PRP?

You may be suitable for PRP undereye treatment if you have one or more of these following concerns

• Dark, tired and sallow looking eyes
• Fine lines and wrinkles around the under eye
• Loose skin below the eye
• Under-eye puffiness.

PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) treatment could be the perfect solution to your under-eye concerns!

PRP is an effective treatment for the under-eye area as it increases blood vessel growth and strengths collagen promoting a refreshed and youthful appearance. 

New blood vessels in the under-eye area allow nutrients and oxygen into the skin, resulting in a decrease of puffiness and loose undereye skin is tightened. 

For PRP Facial Treatment we recommend a course of 3 treatments, one month apart. A top-up is then offered 6-12 months after to upkeep desired results.
