A childbirth repair scar is not always only a cosmetic matter. Many women live for years with pain on sitting or during intimacy because a scar healed thick, tight or uneven — and are often told this is "just normal".
A painful scar is not normal, and it is treatable. The difference between a comfortable scar and a troublesome one is usually millimetres — in how the layers were closed, not in the suture itself.
What we treat
- Thick or raised scars that hurt on touch.
- Asymmetry of the introitus after repair.
- A tight scar causing pain during intimacy.
- Caesarean scars with associated pigmentation or puckering.
- Dark pigmentation along the scar line.
Correction options
We always begin with the gentlest: local injection to soften the scar, mesotherapy, or golden plasma to improve tissue elasticity. These alone are enough in a large share of cases.
Thick scars, or those causing narrowing, need precise surgical revision: removing fibrous tissue and re-closing the layers correctly with attention to aesthetic symmetry.
Recovery
Five to ten days for initial healing, with clear hygiene and sitting instructions. The scar keeps improving — in colour and texture — for up to six months, and we follow you through it.
Not sure this is the right procedure for you?
That is exactly what the assessment appointment settles. Forty-five minutes, conversation before examination, and two or three genuine options with their real differences — with no obligation.
