Scar Treatment Newcastle
See What Sets Luminous Apart

DSCN8623_edited.jpg

What You See Here is a Common Surgical Scar

This image shows a right nasal bridge scar following the treatment of a skin cancer.

​

The surgical defect was reconstructed using a bilobed skin flap, which is a commonly accepted technique for this region. The outcome is a reasonable result from an experienced doctor: The cancer was successfully excised with safe margins, and there was minimal functional impact, including no pulling on the eyelid.

 

At Luminous Skin Cancer and Scar Centre, we believe the goal should be higher than simply "reasonable". Our standard is to strive for excellence in both function and appearance.

Our Philosophy: Prevent the Scar, Not Just Fix It

At Luminous, we aim for more than just treating cancer. Our goals include:

​

  • Complete cancer clearance

  • Preservation of natural facial function

  • Restoration of facial structure

  • Minimal visible scarring

  • Shorter recovery times

  • Reduced long-term cost to the patient

​

While the result in the photo could be improved, doing so may involve:

​

  • Additional surgery

  • Injectable treatments

  • Laser or other energy-based devices

​

These treatments can achieve excellent cosmetic improvements, but the process may take time and require commitment.

​

That is why we focus first on scar prevention. The best scar is the one that never forms.

Why Luminous is Different in Scar Treatment Newcastle

We Don’t Seek Complexity – We Plan for the Best Result

At Luminous, patients do not pay for the complexity of a procedure. Instead, they invest in:

​

  • The experience and training of our team

  • Careful planning that anticipates possible complications

  • A focus on functional and aesthetic outcomes from the start

​

Our clinic does not rely on unnecessarily complex reconstructions. We plan each case with purpose and precision, always keeping the patient’s outcome at the centre.

How We Would Have Managed This Case Differently

In a case like the one shown above, our approach may have included:

​

  • Pre-operative laser or topical preparation to improve skin healing

  • A customised surgical design to minimise tension and preserve symmetry

  • Strict sterile technique to reduce inflammation and risk of infection

  • Use of advanced wound dressings to support natural healing

  • Post-operative laser therapy to calm inflammation and support scar modulation

 

We do not leave outcomes to chance. We plan for them.

When Scars Happen, We’re Prepared

Even with the best technique and planning, unexpected scar formation can occur. The difference at Luminous is that we are equipped to handle it.

​

We offer:

  • Injectable for raised or depressed scars

  • Laser and energy-based technologies for texture and pigment correction

  • Personalised treatment plans based on skin type and scar history

 

We are proud to be the trusted name for scar treatment in Newcastle, helping patients both prevent and improve scarring through evidence-based methods.
