Scar Revision

Scars from surgery, injury, or acne can be a lasting source of self-consciousness. Laser scar revision at Trucare Aesthetics uses the Fotona SP Dynamis laser to reduce scar visibility by resurfacing the scar tissue, stimulating collagen remodelling, and improving the texture and colour match between the scar and surrounding skin. The result is a more even, natural-looking skin appearance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Fotona’s laser is ideal for acne scar revision. It safely and effectively penetrates the skin for gentle resurfacing of acne-scarred skin, helping to improve your skins texture and tone. Unlike chemical peels and dermabrasion, laser skin resurfacing allows the penetration depth to be precisely controlled by the practitioner. The laser gently vaporizes micron-thin layers of the acne-scarred surface to reveal healthy, undamaged skin below.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had laser nail treatments with Jess and had such a great experience from start to finish. Jess was so friendly, kind and completely non-judgmental. She made me feel comfortable right away and honestly made the whole experience so easy.

The treatments worked very well. My nails are looking so much better and I’m really happy with the results.

I would absolutely recommend Jess to anyone considering this treatment. She’s wonderful at what she does and just a genuinely lovely person.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I got filler here this past Monday and let me tell you, I’m SO happy with everything! Mandy, Jess and team make you feel so relaxed and comfortable! This was my first time getting filler and I honestly had no idea what to expect. Mandy walked me through the entire consultation and treatment and let me take a peak at every stage. She also told me what to expect pain wise during the procedure! The clinic is very clean, professional and welcoming! Will definitely be back in the future! 💖

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. 5 stars for Mandy Desousa and her expertise!

I’m writing this three weeks post-treatment, and the results have settled perfectly as expected. Finding a clinic and RN can be trusted long-term is not easy, and I feel lucky to have found both. Mandy’s botox injection technique is outstanding, I had zero bruising after treatment, which is a clear testament to her precision and experience. Most importantly, her aesthetic vision aligns with mine where we prioritizes a natural, balanced look over anything stiff or overdone. Also, she provides excellent guidance throughout the process and truly knows how to achieve subtle, high-quality results.
