Treatments/Scar Assessment & Advice/Scar Assessment & Advice

Here at The London Scar Clinic, we see and treat a wide variety of scars and it is important to note that just like people, scars are all different and hold different characteristics.

The first step of treating any scar is an initial scar assessment with a member of our team. This assessment will involve a number of elements and these include examination of the scar, history of the scar itself as well as your medical history. A full medical history may not seem fully relevant however this is key in helping us to understand any problems that may arise and identify the best treatment options available that suit your lifestyle. Finally, there will be a detailed discussion of all treatments available to you including the pros and cons of each resulting in a treatment plan individually tailored to yourself and your scar.

"Relaxed, clean, calm, professional environment. I was made to feel both welcome and in very experienced and caring hands. Perfect."

"Nurses were kind, supportive and able to answer questions; surgeon inspired confidence; appointment was on time; instructions were clear and easy to follow."

"Experience was positive from start to finish. The staff were professional and caring. I felt that I was in excellent hands."

"I was treated by Mr Jorge Leon-Villapalos last year. I have honestly never received such good care, Mr Leon-Villapalos is very caring and was very sensitive about my issue. He explained everything in detail. The Scar Clinic booking team also made the whole process easy and hassle free. I would 100% recommend this practice, top notch service!"

"Great staff, and knowledge. I called the clinic after I had a traumatic experience elsewhere which left me with 2nd-degree burns. Very, very pleased with the results of the burn, it disappeared and left no scarring with the dressing and treatment Mr Goutos used. My experience as a whole has been more than pleasant and I would recommend both the clinic and Mr Goutos to all!"

"My experience has been absolutely wonderful - many thanks to Mr Leon-Villapalos and team. He’s been extremely patient in taking time to explain things in full, prompt in answering all the questions I had throughout my recovery. Excellent communicator and very kind indeed. Scrub nurses were lovely, and in general I can’t fault my experience with you at all."

"Everything and everyone - from environment to all staff (reception, nurses, and of course Dr. Firas who is a great doctor and a very charming and warm person who makes patients feel at ease even when their situation isn’t the lightest). Overall, very good experience!"

"The surgeon answered all of my concerns and I felt confident to undergo the procedure and came out feeling confident I received very good care. The staff and nurses gave me personal attention and were quite courteous, they readily gave me any information that I needed. They were particular in helping me go through all the steps I needed in preparation for the procedure. "

"Excellent experience through and through. Friendly staff and extended team. Mr Leon-Villapalos is an exceptional communicator and made me feel at ease throughout both of my procedures with him."

"I have been coming to the Clinic for over a year now and the experience has always been extremely professional and courteous. Having major surgery can be a daunting process but the clinic has at all times provided excellent care across all aspects."
