Frequently Asked Questions

What is subcision?

A minor procedure in which a fine needle is passed under a depressed scar to release the bands pulling it down, letting the skin lift and new collagen form.

Does it hurt?

Local anaesthetic is used, so the procedure itself is comfortable. Expect tenderness and bruising for about a week

How many sessions?

Usually 1–3, spaced 4–8 weeks apart, with microneedling or PRP in between.

When will I see results?

Some improvement within weeks; the main change over 2–3 months as collagen builds.

Subcision or microneedling?

Microneedling improves texture and shallow scars. Subcision is for scars anchored below the surface. Many clients need both.

How long does swelling last after subcision?

Swelling and bruising are common after treatment and generally improve gradually. Recovery time varies depending on treatment intensity and individual healing.
