Treatment

The type of treatment required will depend upon the type of scar, its stage of healing and a number of other factors in your history such as prior treatments, other medical conditions and allergies.

Research

The Scar Team based at The Bristol Nuffield Hospital are passionate about research into the field of wound healing and scarring. We are keen to understand why angry scars develop

Support

As a patient with a significant scar, it can be difficult to know where to turn to for support in all its forms, from financial to patient groups.

Prevention

There is no guarantee that any one measure will prevent a scar from forming. This is despite some quite impressive claims made by the manufacturers of certain cosmetic products.

Welcome to The Scar Team

We offer help to anyone afflicted by scarring of the skin. We believe in an honest approach. We believe in an approach that is based upon evidence. Contrary to popular belief, not all scars are the same. Whatever you may read elsewhere, scars never disappear completely. The perceived wisdom is that a team approach best addresses the many problems that a scar can produce, from itch and pain to visible disfigurement and low moods. The Scar Team has over 100 years of experience in the field of scarring. We use a range of conventional and cutting-edge approaches to improve the appearance of your scar and your adaptation to it.
