Entry-point scars
Small incision marks are checked for redness, brown or pale colour, raised tissue and local depressions.
LIPOSUCTION SCARS
Liposuction scars
We distinguish small liposuction entry scars from broader contour irregularity and tightness. Colour, thickness, depressions, firmness and deeper tethering guide the assessment.
01 / ASSESSMENT
What we assess
Broader contour changes
We assess whether unevenness relates to an entry scar, swelling or changes in the underlying fat.
Firmness and tethering
We examine hard areas, skin that feels bound down and tension during movement.
02 / TREATMENT PLAN
A plan matched to the scar
Colour and redness
Treatment is selected after distinguishing vascular redness from pigmentation at the entry point.

Raised scars, shallow depressions and rough texture guide the combination of laser and injection options.

Examination and ultrasound when indicated help assess deeper structures before planning tethering treatment.

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
Questions, answered
Are an entry scar and broad unevenness treated the same way?
We separate local scar colour, thickness and dents from wider contour changes. Suspected fat-layer changes or other postoperative problems may also need your operating surgeon's assessment.
Can an old, pale liposuction scar be assessed?
Yes. We evaluate colour contrast, surface texture and depression separately to discuss suitable treatment options.
Is ultrasound used for hardness or bound-down skin?
We first examine the tissue and movement. Ultrasound may provide additional information about deeper structures and is interpreted alongside the examination.
