There are many effective treatments for acne, including oral or topical medications and laser treatment, amongst others. During your consultation, Dr Injibar will be able to recommend the right path for you.
Dr Injibar’s approach includes the patient every step of the way, regardless of their age, fostering a strong relationship of trust between herself and her patients and allowing for a more accurate, personalised treatment with an increased level of patient comfort. This begins at the consultation, where Dr Injibar will take the time to assess your skin and address any concerns and queries you may have.
How many treatments that are necessary will depend on each patient’s bespoke treatment plan. During your consultation, Dr Hiba will be able to advise you on what to expect.
As with any surgical procedure, surgical scar removal carries the risk of complications and side effects, including moderate pain or discomfort for around 5 days after the procedure. During your consultation, Dr Injibar will ensure you fully understand the associated risks and downfalls to this treatment.
Surgical scar removal is a day case, and patients should be mobile almost immediately after the procedure. However, it is incredibly important for the healing process that Dr Injibar’s aftercare advice is followed exactly for optimal results. This includes keeping the area clean, dry, and free from infection. Patients should prepare for around a week away from work, or their usual daily routine for a week, and refrain from strenuous physical activity or exercise for 6 weeks post-procedure.
Scars come in a range of forms, but by and large can be defined into the most common categories. Hypertrophic scars are red, itchy, and continue to grow after the healing process is complete. They usually mature into pale, flat scars. Keloid scars are similar, but are more painful, and continue to grow and spread. Atrophic scars stretch and widen after healing, and depressed scars are scars that heal lower than the normal skin level.
In most cases, only one cryotherapy treatment is needed. However, in the case of some lesions, warts in particular, multiple sessions may be needed to prevent regrowth.
There are a number of contraindications to cryotherapy, including pregnancy, hypertension, arrhythmia, symptomatic cardiovascular disease, venous thrombosis, and Raynauld’s Syndrome to name a few. During your consultation, Dr Injibar will question you about your medical history to determine that cryotherapy is safe for you and recommend alternative treatments if needed.
Patients may notice inflammation, swelling, redness, blisters, scabbing or weeping in the treatment area for a few days after the procedure, though this should not take too long to subside. For patients with naturally pigmented skin, they may notice a slight change in colour in the skin of the treatment area compared to the surrounding skin.
Patients should expect to feel some level of discomfort, as cryotherapy exposes the skin to extreme cold temperatures. However, this is over extremely brief periods of time, and no extreme pain should be felt.
During the procedure, numbing medication is administered, during which patients may experience an uncomfortable, stinging sensation. Once adequately numbed, the patient may feel a slight pulling sensation, but this should not hurt. After treatment, patients can experience swelling, bruising, and tenderness in the area.
In some cases, the excision of xanthelasma may produce permanent results. However, it is possible for xanthelasma to return, either in the same spot or in a different position. If this occurs, it is vital that the returning xanthelasma is treated early in order to reduce the risk of scarring.
Treatment may take around 2 weeks to fully heal, though this is usually quicker with surgery than with laser treatment. During your consultation, Dr Injibar can advise you on how much downtime will be necessary, dependant on your unique needs, though most patients can return to their usual routine the day after treatment. If stitches are required, these can be removed after one week.
Patients will need to return to Dermasurge within two weeks in order to have stitches removed, during which time Dr Injibar will be able to assess the condition of the healing wound and effectiveness of treatment. Leading up to their follow-up appointments, patients should take care to keep the treated area clean, dry, and free of strain or damage. It can take up to three weeks for the skin to heal, and painkillers such as paracetamol or ibuprofen may be used to manage any discomfort.
Whether the skin lump returns or not will depend on the type of skin lump that occurs. For example, a lipoma or epidermoid cyst may return over time.
As a surgical procedure, excision of skin lumps may result in pain in the treatment area, as well as bleeding, or scarring.
Patients will be able to go home shortly after the procedure, and return to work the following day, but should take care in the days following in order to ensure healthy healing and minimise the risk of infection. Over-the-counter pain relief may be used if necessary. After examining your skin, Dr Injibar will be able to better advise on how much downtime is to be expected.
Over-the-counter painkillers may be required to minimise any discomfort patients may feel. Although patients are free to leave the clinic immediately, they may wish to take some time off from their daily routine whilst the skin heals. At Dermasurge, we encourage all of our patients to embrace the prospect of downtime in order to achieve long-lasting, highly effective results. Exposure to sunlight should be avoided in the weeks following treatment whilst the skin heals in order to provide hyperpigmentation from occurring. Dr Injibar will be able to advise patients on how to fully care for their skin after the treatment.
Patients who suffer from active acne should not seek treatment until this has cleared, as this risks further scarring developing. Those with a suppressed immune system, a tendency to form keloid scars, or with very dark skin are not suitable for laser peels.
Laser peels may result in redness, inflammation, itching, and tenderness in the treatment area. The length of time for which this will occur will depend on the depth of treatment needed. Patients may also find the treated skin becomes slightly lighter or darker. There is a slight risk of scarring, though this is not common.
Whilst patients will notice an immediate improvement, the full scope of the benefits won’t be evident until collagen is fully stimulated until around 3-6 months after treatments.
In some circumstances, a course of treatment may be necessary to achieve optimal results. Dr Injibar will be able to help determine how many sessions to expect to meet your goals during the consultation process.
Laser skin resurfacing is a highly versatile treatment for a range of skin concerns, and using advance techniques, can effectively treat a range of skin tones and types. Those who suffer with active acne should not seek laser skin resurfacing treatments, and patients should be prepared to avoid sun exposure for several months post-treatment. For this reason, we recommend undergoing treatment during the Autumn or Winter months. During your consultation, Dr Injibar will fully assess your suitability for this treatment.
For patients who suffer with light sensitivity, seizures, a tendency to developing hyperpigmentation, large veins, broke skin, diabetes, or are prone to keloid scarring, laser thread vein removal is not advised. Pregnant women should also not seek out treatment. During your consultation, Dr Injibar will ask you about your medical history to ensure the treatment is safe for you.
Patients may find they experience bruising, redness, swelling, or slight pigmentation changes in the treatment area, though this usually settles as the skin heals. For more persistent or serious side effects, please consult with a medical professional.
Most patients are able to return to their daily activities immediately after treatment.
Thread veins can be eradicated permanently. However, laser treatment does not prevent new thread veins from forming.
The number of treatments required will vary from patient to patient. In some cases, a course of sessions spaced around a month apart is necessary for optimal results.
Patients may feel some discomfort, often reporting a slight stinging sensation, but it should not be majorly painful.
Patients can return to normal immediately after treatment. However, strenuous activity should be avoided for around 24 hours.
Patients may notice bruising, redness, or that the skin in the treatment area becomes paler. However, this soon fades along with the birthmark. Scarring is usually avoiding using laser treatments.
Once the course of treatment is completed, results are most often permanent.
Patients often feel a slight stinging sensation, which can be alleviated using numbing cream. However, the treatment is usually not very painful, albeit slightly uncomfortable.
The amount of treatments necessary will vary depending on the age of the patient and the type and severity of the birthmark. If the patient is a child and birthmark is still growing, sessions should take place every 2 to 3 weeks to avoid any potential regrowth. During your consultation, Dr Injibar will be able to advise further on how many sessions will be necessary.
The most important aspect of caring for your skin is making sure it is protected from the harmful rays of the sun by using sunscreen with an adequate SPF year-round. During your check, ask Dr Injibar for more specific advice for caring for your specific skin type.
In many cases, the early detection of any skin irregularities can be crucial in their effective treatment. Regular skin health checks allow patients to check any changes to their skin in a timely fashion and receive treatment in a timely fashion.
A skin health check is not painful. Patients will be able to leave immediately after the check is performed, and return to their usual routine immediately after.
In most cases, skin cancer screenings should only take around 10 minutes. It is quick and easy, and patients may return to their usual routines immediately.
There are no risks associated with skin cancer screening. In fact, it is far more of a risk not to attend if you are concerned about your skin.
It is important to take note of any changes in the skin so that skin cancer may be detected early. This allows for easier, more effective treatment and higher survival rates in the majority of cases. Skin cancer screening is even more important for patients with irregular pigmentation, moles, and a history of sun exposure.
Patients undergoing subcision should be aware of the side effects, including bleeding, pain, or tenderness in the treatment area, raised hypertrophic or keloid scarring hyperpigmentation.
How many treatments required to improve the appearance of will depend on each individual patient, and how their body forms scar tissue. The type of scarring, location, and severity will also have an impact on how many treatments are required. In most cases, 3 to 6 treatments are required, with at least one month in between.
Patients with a history of hypertrophic or keloid scarring or bleeding or blood clotting disorders should not undergo subcision treatment. It should also be avoided by those with active bacterial or viral infections. During your consultation, Dr Injibar will examine your medical history to ensure the treatment will be safe for you, and suggest alternatives if required.
Whether or not subcision should be performed will depend on the type of scarring, as well as the location and severity. It produces best results when used on depressed scarring, but is not suitable for ice-pick scars. During your consultation, Dr Inibar will fully assess your suitability for subcision.
Most side effects of nail surgery are related to the anaesthetic used and may include dizziness or drowsiness. As a result of the procedure itself, patients usually experience bleeding, swelling and tenderness at the site, though this subsides as the nail heals. Some patients may experience discharge, which is normal in most cases and does not always indicate infection. If you suspect an infection, please seek medical advice without delay. Painkillers may be used when required to manage pain. Scarring may be unavoidable in some cases. Pregnant women should not undergo nail surgery, as the chemicals may cause harm to an unborn child.
Most patients will be able to leave the clinic shortly after surgery and will be able to walk on the same day. Patients should expect the nail to take around 8 weeks to heal, though if care is taken and Dr Injibar’s aftercare advice is followed, many can return to their normal routines the day after surgery. Patients undergoing surgery on the toenails should wear suitable footwear that can easily fit over bulky dressings, and ensure they do not drive or take public transport when leaving the clinic to avoid injury. Strenuous exercise should be avoided until the nail bed is fully healed.
Nail surgery is, in most circumstances, performed under local anaesthetic, and patients should not feel any pain during the procedure.
The best course of action varies from patient to patient, and will be determined during your consultation. The type of mole you have, as well as the current condition of the mole will factor in to which treatment options are available to you.
In some cases, a few mole cells may be left in the skin, causing the mole to grow back in the same spot. However, this is relatively rare, and in most cases, moles are permanently removed in just one treatment
There are a variety of option for the safe removal of moles. This includes laser removal, surgical removal, and mole shaving. During your consultation, Dr Injibar will help to determine the best course of action for you, and be able to provide you with more information on what to expect from the procedure, including aftercare and downtime.
As a non-invasive procedure, there is no downtime associated with SkinPen® treatment. As long as Dr Injibar’s aftercare advice is followed, patients can return to their usual routines without delay and still experience outstanding results. The skin may appear pink or red for 2 to 3 days immediately after treatment, though this is most like a mild sunburn, and should subside fairly swiftly. Dryness, tightness, itching, and inflammation are also common side effects that should resolve themselves over time.
SkinPen® is suitable for all skin types, however, there are some contraindications. During your consultation, Dr Injibar will assess your medical history to ensure that SkinPen® is safe for you, and able to achieve the desired results.
Microneedling stimulates the production of Collagen within the skin. As collagen reserves need time to rebuild and repair in the skin, patients should expect to see results six months after their final treatment.
How many treatments that are necessary will depend on your unique skin concerns. With SkinPen®, most patients can expect to see an improvement in just three treatments, spaced 30 days apart. During your consultation, Dr Injibar will be able to provide you with a more precise treatment plan.
During your consultation, Dr Injibar will ask about your medical history in order to identify any contraindications. This includes pregnancy and breastfeeding, or those who suffer neurological damage in the treatment area
Injectables are non-invasive, and there is very little associated downtime, though patients should take care to follow Dr Injibar’s aftercare advice. Most patients are able to resume their daily activities immediately.
The effects of injectables are not permanent and wear off over time. This usually takes between 3 and 6 months, depending on how it is processed and broken down by the body. To maintain the effects of treatment, repeat treatments are necessary. Patients are advised to prolong effects by topping up the treated areas before it has completely worn off, rather than retreating from scratch, as this gives better results over longer periods of time.
Injectable treatments are not immediate, and patients should expect to wait for around 2-3 weeks for it to fully take effect. However paitents may start to see results before this point. As the treatment starts to take hold, patients should see a marked improvement in teeth grinding symptoms.
Most patients find results for gummy smile last between 3 and 4 months. However, this depends on how each individual’s body processes the injectables. Also, it may vary from person to person.
Patients may experience bruising, swelling, itching, redness, or tenderness around the site of injection. This is perfectly normal, and should not last more than a few days. More severe or persistent symptoms should be seen to by a medical professional.
During your consultation, Dr Injibar will check your medical history to ensure there are no contraindications for any injectable treatments. These treatments are not suitable for pregnant or breastfeeding mothers, or patients currently taking certain types of medication. That is why it is important to conduct a full consultation before any injectable treatment is done.
Injectables are considered a minimally invasive treatment, and as such, there is very little downtime. Most patients are able to return to their everyday routines immediately after treatment. However, care should be taken to follow Dr Injibar’s aftercare advice in order to ensure the best results. This includes avoiding extreme temperatures, vigorous exercise for two days, and lying down, or leaning over for around 6 hours after treatment.
Patients will notice an improvement to their smile within 3 days of treatment and will find their upper lip elevates less and less over a period of around two to three weeks. After this time, the full extent of the effects of the treatment will be evident.
Patients may experience redness, tenderness, swelling or itching in the treatment areas as a result of the injections. However, this will subside within a few days. More serious side effects should be seen to by a medical professional as soon as possible.

Growth factors in the skin are boosted for around 12 weeks after PRP treatment. To maintain the effects, repeat treatment is recommended.
PRP can be delivered over a course of treatment sessions, depending on what the patient wishes to treat. Dr Injibar will be able to better advise on this during the consultation process.
Patients should be prepared for bruising and swelling and expect around 24 hours of downtime before returning to their full daily routines. Dr Hiba will provide full aftercare advice that should be followed to achieve the very best result.
Each patient has a unique tolerance to pain, and since PRP involves injecting the skin, some discomfort is to be expected. Dr Injibar will do her utmost to ensure a pain-free experience, and the use of topical anaesthetic can be used if needed.
PRP has a wealth of benefits for the skin and can be used to improve the look of a wide-ranging list of aesthetic concerns. This includes ageing skin, poor texture, scarring, a dull complexion, fine lines and wrinkles, uneven skin tone, and skin laxity amongst others. PRP is suitable for use on the face, neck, décolletage, hands, and even the delicate areas around the eyes. PRP even has significant success in the treatment of hair loss.

The benefit of using dermal fillers to correct the shape of the nose rather than opting for surgical rhinoplasty is the lack of downtime associated with dermal filler treatment. Following Dr Injibar’s aftercare advice, patients can return to their normal, daily routines immediately.
Some patients may experience minor side effects, including redness, tenderness, swelling and bruising at the site of injection. This should not last more than a few days.
Dermal fillers are a temporary treatment. Made of hyaluronic acid, a substance found naturally within the body, the longevity of dermal fillers depends on how fast each individual processes and breaks them down. Dr Injibar uses only the most advanced and effective dermal filler solutions, and most patients find results last between 12 and 18 months.
Every patient has a different pain tolerance, and some may feel some discomfort when going under the needle. However, Dr Injibar will do all she can to ensure the procedure is as pain-free as possible, and a local anaesthetic is available for patients who require it.
This will depend on the type of peel used during treatment, and results may take between one week and 3 months to become fully evident, depending on the length of downtime. Patients may need repeat or top-up treatment every six months. Dr Hiba will recommend an at-home skincare regime to help prolong the effects of chemical peel treatments.
Common side effects of chemical peels include flaking, peeling, redness, tenderness or stinging in the treatment area. This should subside as the skin begins to heal.
The amount of downtime will depend on the strength of the peel. At Dermasurge, we recommend embracing longer periods of downtime in favour of more effective, long-lasting treatments where necessary. During the consultation process, Dr Hiba will be able to fully advise patients on how much downtime to expect but is usually between 3-7 days. Patients should avoid sunlight as the skin heals.
Patients can usually resume their normal activities immediately, so long as they adhere to Dr Injibar’s aftercare advice. Redness, tenderness, or swelling can be expected immediately after treatment, though this should settle down within a few days.

The effects of facial vein treatment may be permanent if the appropriate aftercare advice is followed. However, in some cases, the vein is simply shrunk rather than destroyed and may reappear over time. The vein may reappear, and a repeat treatment may be necessary.
Facial vein treatment is safe for most people, even in those with darker skin tones using specific treatments. During your consultation, Dr Injibar will assess your medical history to rule out any contraindications before putting together a bespoke treatment plan for achieving the best possible results.
At the site of injection, patients may experience redness, swelling, and bruising. However, this should not last longer than a week. In addition, headaches, soreness, and numbness may be present during this time. Persistent or more serious side effects should be examined by a medical professional.
Patients may not notice an immediate result, as the medication used needs some time to work. Patients should notice a gradual improvement after around a week, with full effects evident at around 3 weeks after treatment.
Injectables do not usually require any downtime, and patients can go back to their normal routines immediately. As long as they abide by Dr Injibar’s aftercare advice, patients can enjoy beautiful, long-lasting results.
During your consultation, Dr Injibar will examine your medical history to ensure there are no contraindications to injectable treatments. Amongst those unsuitable for treatment are pregnant or breastfeeding mothers.
The longevity of treatment varied from patient to patient. This is because dermal fillers are largely made up of hyaluronic acid (HA), a naturally occurring substance within the body, and each individual breaks HA down at different speeds. Because of this, fillers may last anywhere between 6 and 12 months.
Immediately after treatment, patients may experience swelling, redness, bruising, itching, or tenderness to the lips as a result of injections, though this should subside quickly.
As the lips are a highly sensitive area, many patients may be concerned about the level of pain associated with lip filler treatment. However, there is little need to worry. Dr Injibar will always do her utmost to ensure patient comfort and can use numbing cream if required. In addition, some fillers contain lidocaine, a form of local anaesthetic, to minimise any discomfort.
Dermal fillers are highly safe, and suitable for most patients. However, like all treatments, there are some contraindications. During the consultation process, Dr Injibar will examine your medical history to ensure it is safe for treatment to go ahead. Pregnant and breastfeeding mothers should not seek out dermal filler treatments.
The skin of the hands is fairly delicate, and some discomfort is possible depending on the treatment type. Dr Injibar will do everything possible to reduce any pain, including the use of anaesthetic where possible, to ensure a comfortable, enjoyable treatment.
Depending on the treatment selected, the effects of hand rejuvenation may vary greatly. However, most patients see great results for anything up to 12-18 months, though this varies from patient to patient.
During your consultation with Dr Injibar, she will be able to fully assess the needs of your skin and discern the best treatment for rejuvenating the hands, drawing up a comprehensive treatment plan that caters directly to your individual requirements.
Patients may notice redness, swelling inflammation, and blisters in the treatment area, usually lasting around two weeks.
Some patients may not require much downtime in cases where only mild treatment is necessary. However, at Dermasurge, we encourage all of our patients to embrace the prospect of downtime when necessary, as this often leads to longer-lasting, more noticeable results.
The number of treatments needed will depend on the severity of the stretch marks. In many cases, only one session will be required, though some may need a course of treatment to achieve the desired result. During our consultation, Dr Hiba will be able to advise how many treatments are necessary on a case-by-case basis.
If Dr Hiba’s aftercare advice is followed correctly, there is no reason why the appearance of stretch marks are not permanently improved. However, this may vary from patient to patient.
At Dermasurge, we offer a range of treatments designed to improve the look of the hands. This includes dermal fillers to help plump out the skin, lasers for an all-over tightening and evening of the skin tone, and chemical peels to provide a boost of hydration to the skin, sloughing off dead skin cells to reveal more youthful, healthier skin underneath.
The treatment is performed using topical anaesthesia to minimise any pain, so that the patient experiences only a small amount of discomfort.
Patients may experience a number of side effects after undergoing laser treatment. This includes swelling, scabbing, or burns. In some cases, changes in the pigmentation of the skin may occur. Under Dr Injibar’s experienced hand, the risk of these side effects are greatly lessened.
Laser treatment for scarring does come with a period of downtime of around one week, varying from patient to patient. At Dermasurge, we advocate for treatments that truly provide the best for your skin, embracing downtime in favour of long-lasting, effective treatment. Dr Injibar will be on hand to provide detailed aftercare advice to help patients on their way to a speedy, stress-free recovery period.
Most types of scars can be effectively diminished using laser treatments, including keloid scars, acne scars, and hypertrophic scars. During your consultation, Dr Injibar will be able to assess the severity of scarring to give you an idea on what kind of results you can expect.
The procedure itself takes around 40 minutes, with patients able to return to their daily life immediately, though results won’t be evident for around a month.
Patients will be able, and are encouraged, to walk around very soon after the procedure, and remaining mobile during recovery is advisable, so there is little downtime associated. It is advised to keep pressure on the treatment area for around two weeks, for example, using bandages or compression stockings. Patients may feel sore for a few days post-procedure.
Some patients may experience a slight ache whilst the injection occurs, though in most cases, there is no pain or discomfort at all.
Usually, a course of 6-8 treatments is recommended for optimal results. However, this can vary depending on the area of treatment.
Patients usually find that after a course of treatments, results last for around a year, though depending on the individual, can be permanent.
Most patients who visit Dermasurge for laser hair removal can resume daily activity immediately after treatment, though they may experience redness and sensitivity for up to 48 hours. Patients should avoid exposure to extreme temperatures, such as hot baths, saunas, steam rooms or sun exposure for a week post-treatment, and refrain from vigorous exercise and swimming during the healing process.
White or blonde hair does not respond to laser treatment, as it targets the melanin and pigment in the hair. In addition, fine facial hairs are better left untreated, as laser hair removal can have an adverse effect and actually increase hair growth. You should not have laser hair removal if you are pregnant.
Due to the bespoke nature of the treatment, the total cost of hand rejuvenation will be confirmed during your consultation with Dr Injibar.
Patients will notice an immediate improvement to the appearance of the hands after just one dermal filler treatment. Laser treatment may require up to three sessions until the full effects of the treatment are evident. Results usually last for around 12 months.

Patients may experience bruising, swelling, redness, and tenderness around the treatment area for a few days after the procedure. This should gradually go away over time.
The amount of downtime necessary will depend on the strength of the peel, and can be better advised during your consultation. At Dermasurge, we encourage patients to embrace lengthier periods of downtime, as this often correlates to longer-lasting, more effective treatments. There is no downtime for PRP procedures.
There are no unique side effects associated with skinpen and PRP combination treatments, except for those associated with each treatment singularly. If required, Dr Injibar can use topical anaesthetic to maintain patient comfort during PRP treatment.
A combination of microneedling using Skinpen and PRP treatment can help improve the appearance of a wide range of skin concerns. This includes the effects of ageing, scarring, dullness, poor texture, and uneven tone.
During your consultation, Dr Injibar will comb through your medical history to ensure no contraindications that could complicate liquid facelift treatment. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should refrain from treatment.
Unlike surgical facelifts, liquid facelifts are not permanent, and results can last up to 18 months depending on the reaction of the body and how fast it breaks down the injected substances. To prolong results beyond this, repeat treatment should be carried out.

Most patients are able to return to their normal routine the same day, though they should take caution. Results may be visible immediately, but will take around 7 days to become fully apparent.
