What is Scar & Stretch Mark Revision?

Alma Opus is a next-generation skin-renewal system that combines advanced radio-frequency and micro-plasma (fractional) energy, enabling deep dermal stimulation and surface-refinement in one session. In the context of scars and stretch‐marks:

  • The device creates controlled micro-injuries that trigger your skin’s natural regeneration and collagen-production processes, helping to remodel scar-tissue or stretch-tissue.
  • It supports textural smoothing, tone-refinement and can be used on body or face areas where scars or striae are evident.
  • Because Alma Opus can be customised for different depths and tissue types, it gives the flexibility to treat delicate zones or deeper body areas with precision.

More Information

Who is this treatment best suited for?

This treatment may be suited for you if you:

● Have visible scars (acne, surgical, trauma) or stretch-marks on the body (abdomen, thighs, hips, arms) you’d like to refine.

● Are willing to invest in a series of professional treatments + after-care, rather than expecting a one-session “magic fix”.

● Prefer a device-led method (non-injectable) that supports your skin’s own repair, rather than simply covering or filling it.

● Understand that results depend on your skin’s starting point, scar/striae age, body zone, your lifestyle, and commitment to the plan.

● Are looking for a premium skin-health experience (aligned with our clients who
invest in themselves for longevity, not just quick fixes).

Are there any safety considerations for this treatment?

Not everyone is a candidate — factors like pregnancy, active infection, recent sun exposure, keloid-prone scarring or certain medications may contraindicatethe treatment.

● While generally safe, possible effects include temporary redness, mild crusting,pigment changes or prolonged redness especially in deeper settings —discussed in detail at consultation.

● Results vary widely between individuals. Scar type (hypertrophic vs atrophic),age of mark, body zone, skin type and lifestyle (smoking, sun exposure) allinfluence outcome. We set realistic expectations.

● This is a scar-revision / texture-improvement treatment, not a claim of “completescar removal” or “removal of all stretch-marks”. That level of promise would runafoul of the advertising guidelines.

Scar remodelling can take time and results will be noticeable after the first few treatments however, true results will come over the following 6-12months after treatment as your collagen fully matures and restructures the scars and stretch marks.
