How Does Subcision Work?

The procedure is performed under an aseptic technique.

The treatment area is first numbed using a topical anaesthetic cream and local anaesthesia injections.

A sharp Subcision instrument is then inserted under the skin to cut and break the fibres of the scar, or the cellulite dimple. Each scar/ dimple is treated separately unless they are located side by side.

The Subcision procedure releases the scar/cellulite dimple and stimulates the production of fresh collagen and elastin in the treated skin area.

Nano Fat Grafting

A small amount of fat can then be injected into the treated area once the Subcision is completed. This is done to help fill the tissue and lift the scar/ cellulite dimple further up. The natural stem cells found in the fat cells then help regenerate new dermal tissue in the treated area. The results are permanent (long-term) once the desired correction is achieved. However, more than one treatment session is needed for deeper scars/ cellulite dimples.

The Pain Factor

Our highly experienced clinical team does their utmost to minimise any treatment-associated pain or discomfort. Having fine motor skills and a gentle pair of hands are important assets for any clinician.

Depending upon the type of procedure being performed, we use high-strength topical numbing cream, inhalation (laughing) gas, local anaesthesia, as well as a skin-cooling device to make the procedure as tolerable as possible.
