Your concern
Surgical Scarring
Surgical scarring is a natural part of the skin’s healing process following procedures such as C-sections, breast surgery, orthopaedic procedures, mole removal, or trauma repair. While most scars fade over time, some may remain raised, discoloured, firm, or texturally uneven — especially if the healing process was interrupted by infection, tension, or individual skin type.
At Aestheté Sunshine Coast, we’ve developed a patient-specific Scar Treatment Protocol using advanced clinical technologies and medical-grade skincare to support scar softening, blending, and skin restoration.
THE AESTHETE SCAR PROTOCOL
Our Scar Treatment Protocol is highly personalised and designed to address the specific characteristics of each scar — including its age, location, depth, colour, and texture. We use a strategic combination of clinically proven technologies and skincare to improve the appearance and comfort of scars over time.
All treatment plans are tailored to the individual and quoted on a case-by-case basis after a thorough consultation and scar assessment.

Frequently Asked Questions
We can begin treatment as early as 6–12 weeks post-surgery once your wound is fully closed and healed. In some cases, early intervention can improve long-term scar outcomes.
The number of sessions varies based on the scar’s size, age, location, and response to treatment. Most clients benefit from a series of 3–6 treatments over several months.
We can treat most surgical scars; however, some keloid-prone scars require a more cautious approach. Your eligibility will be assessed during consultation.
Each treatment protocol is quoted individually based on the scar's complexity and treatment plan. You’ll receive a full breakdown during your consultation.
