Childbirth and surgeries, whether for birthing, abdominal issues, or breast cancer, can leave scars that can impact your daily life as well as your confidence.

Our specialist team is here to help you with personalised care to manage and heal these scars effectively.

  • Perineal Tears and Episiotomies – During childbirth, you might experience a perineal tear or undergo an episiotomy (a surgical cut in the perineum). As these wounds heal, the scar tissue can become tight and stick to underlying layers of soft tissue. This can cause discomfort during intercourse and everyday activities. Scar massage can help increase the elasticity of the perineal tissues and reduce scar tissue, improving comfort and functionality.
  • Caesarean Section Scars – If you’ve had a C-section, the surgery involves multiple layers of tissue. As these tissues heal, adhesions can form, affecting muscle movement and function. These adhesions can lead to pain over the scar, discomfort during sex, or pelvic floor issues such as bladder or bowel problems. Keeping the scar flexible is essential for optimal abdominal muscle function.
  • Breast Cancer and Other Surgical Scars – Our specialised services also address scars from breast cancer surgeries and various abdominal or gynaecological procedures. Women may experience tightness, pulling, or discomfort around their scars, which can feel tender, itchy, or numb, and may appear pink or red and slightly raised.
