A little bit about me…
-
My name is Vix and I set up the Scar & Stretch Mark Clinic because I know how much scarring can affect your life!
-
I had some surgeries a couple of years ago but ended up with raised, pigmented (hypertrophic) scarring which made me feel really self-conscious and I *definitely* didn’t feel like showing off the results!
-
I honestly thought I’d have to live with the scarring forever until I found out about medical needling and how it can transform scars (and stretch marks)! It has honestly changed my life and I’m proud to offer these advanced treatments to help others feel more confident and comfortable in their own skin.
-
If you’ve got any questions please feel free to DM me, or get yourself booked in for a FREE consultation.

✨ Reasons to Consider Medical Needling - Hypertrophic Scars ✨

Hypertrophic scars can be raised, firm and often irritating and itchy - they can really affect how your skin feels day-to-day. Medical needling is a powerful, non-surgical option that can help.

🔸 Reduces height & thickness
By stimulating controlled collagen remodelling, needling helps flatten raised scar tissue over time.

🔸 Improves texture & softness
Scar tissue becomes smoother and more flexible, making the area feel more comfortable.

🔸 Helps calm itchiness
Improved blood flow and collagen structure can reduce that tight, itchy feeling hypertrophic scars can cause.

🔸 Blends colour
Needling encourages healthy skin turnover, helping the scar blend more naturally with surrounding skin.

Hypertrophic scars can look different from person to person - they can also mimic keloid scarring.

If your scar feels raised, tight or itchy, this treatment could make a huge difference. 💛

Medical Needling for Stretch Marks ✨

Whether your stretch marks are new and pink or older and silvery, medical needling can help soften, fade, and smooth them.
By stimulating your skin’s natural collagen + elastin, we encourage real regeneration (not just surface-level change).
Perfect for tummy, thighs, hips, breasts and more…

❤️ “Young stretch marks’ are the early-stage stretch marks that have just formed.
They’re also called striae rubra and have these features:

✨ Colour: Pink, red, purple or slightly brown depending on skin tone
✨ Texture: Slightly raised or inflamed
✨ Why they look like this: Blood vessels are still active in the area
✨ Why this matters: Because they’re new and vascular, they respond exceptionally well to treatments like medical needling

In this stage, we can significantly improve colour, texture, and thickness because the skin is still in its early healing phase.

🤍“Mature stretch marks” are the older marks that have fully healed beneath the surface.
They’re also called striae alba and have these characteristics:

✨ Colour: White, silver, or pale compared to surrounding skin
✨ Texture: Usually flat, thinner, and sometimes slightly indented
✨ Why they look this way: Blood vessels have closed and the collagen fibres in the area are stretched + weakened
✨ Why it matters: Mature stretch marks take longer to treat than young ones - but they can still improve with targeted treatments like medical needling

Medical needling helps by rebuilding collagen and elastin in the deeper dermis, gradually improving texture, thickness, and the overall visibility of the stretch mark.

Thinking about medical needling for acne scarring?
It’s never too late to treat them, whether it’s from teen or adult acne ✨

Here are a few reasons it might be worth considering 👇✨

🔹 Softens pitted & uneven texture
Helps rebuild collagen to gradually smooth out indented scars.

🔹 Reduces pigmentation & post-acne marks
Targets those stubborn dark or red marks that linger long after breakouts.

🔹 Improves overall skin tone & brightness
Fresh collagen = fresher, healthier-looking skin.

🔹 Boosts product absorption
Skincare works harder and penetrates deeper after treatment.

🔹Targets individual ice pick, boxcar and rolling scars

If acne scarring has knocked your confidence, medical needling can genuinely make a difference - safely, gradually and with long-term results 🫶

👇 Drop a message if you’d like a consultation or want to check if it’s right for you.

Considering medical needling for your C-section scar?

If your scar has left you with a ‘shelf’, changes in texture, or even strange sensations that make you feel “icky,” medical needling can help support real improvement.

✨ Why consider medical needling for C-section scars?
• Helps soften raised or tight scar tissue
• Stimulates natural collagen + elastin production
• Can reduce the appearance of a ‘shelf’ by improving tissue mobility and releasing the internal pull on the fascia
• Improves pigmentation and smooths uneven texture
• Supports long-term scar remodelling for a flatter, more even finish
• Can improve nerve signalling and reduce that “weird”, numb, tingly, or over-sensitive feeling some women experience around their scar

You deserve to feel comfortable in your skin again — physically and emotionally. 💛

✨ Why Medical Needling Is Amazing for Cosmetic Surgery Scars ✨
Whether you’ve had a tummy tuck, breast surgery, lipo, or top surgery — medical needling can transform the healing process.

Here’s why it works so well:
✅ Boosts collagen + elastin
Stimulates your skin’s natural repair response to soften and blend scar tissue.

✅ Improves texture & smoothness
Helps flatten raised scars and reduces that “ropey” or firm feel.

✅ Targets pigmentation
Can lighten red, dark or uneven scar colouring for a more even finish.

✅ Releases tight fascia
Great for scars that feel tight, pull on movement, or cause contour irregularities.

✅ Boosts product penetration
Allows specialised serums to reach deeper layers for better results.

✨ Best for: tummy tuck scars, C-section scars, breast lift/augmentation scars, lipo scars, top surgery scars + more.

Drop us a message if you’d like personalised advice. 💛

C-section scar 🤰

Here’s a video of my lovely client having her first medical needling treatment on her c-section scar - she especially hates the ‘shelf’ she’s been left with.

A follow up appointment may be required in approx 6 weeks x

Did you know…
So many women experience tightness, uneven texture, or a visible ridge long after healing. You might also be one of the many women who have a little ‘shelf’ over your c-section scar?

Medical needling involves causing micro traumas to the scar. It also helps to break down the scar tissue adhesions which pull the skin inwards.

This treatment helps to:
🌿 Stimulate collagen & elastin
🌿 Soften and flatten scars
🌿 Improve colour & texture
🌿 Reduce that “shelf” effect many experience after surgery

There is very minimal (if any!) pain due to working over scar tissue which has few nerve endings.

Get in touch if you have any questions or book a free consultation using the link in our bio x

✨ SCAR PROGRESS ✨
This client has achieved fantastic results after just 2 sessions of medical needling on a leg scar after surgery. 💫

✔️ Pigmentation has visibly reduced
✔️ The texture of the scar is much smoother
✔️ Large parts of the scar are now barely visible

Medical needling is a powerful, non-invasive treatment that works with your body to improve scar appearance over time. Healing takes patience — but these results speak for themselves (although the photos don’t do it justice!)! 💪🏽

Breast Uplift Scar Healing – Progress in Motion 💫

Swipe to see the journey this client is on following a breast uplift (mastopexy) with implants 🍒

Like many, she felt self-conscious about her post-surgical scarring. We’re using medical needling to help soften and smooth the scar tissue, and support natural healing beneath the skin.

We will assess the progress again after the 3rd session has healed!

➡️ These results show just how much collagen stimulation and scar remodelling can improve the appearance over a relatively short space of time.

✨ Scars like these often respond beautifully to treatment.

⭐️ Every scar is unique. If you’ve had cosmetic surgery and would like to explore your options for treatment, feel free to message or book a free consultation via the link in bio.
