Scars
Your face and body tell a story. Sometimes visible scars tell a story we wish to forget — sagas of acne battles and accidents, surgery, stretch marks to name a few.
With ArtMed’s wide array of medical-grade technologies, we can help patients address scars of various types including hypertrophic raised scars, pitted or depressed scars, surgical/traumatic injury scars, stretch marks and the pigmentation and redness that often accompanies such lesions.
No matter the cause of your scars, we can help. If you’re thinking of treating scars, do it sooner than later because younger scars are easier to treat. Surgical scars can be treated as soon as one month after surgery. Even older established scars can be improved. Book a consult today.

DERMA-V is one of Vivier’s latest innovations and is focused on supporting skin’s barrier function. A weak barrier leads to loss in hydration, dry, rough, fragile skin and dermatitis.
The skin is our largest organ and is home to trillions of bacteria that form our skin's microbiome which is our first line of defense against infection, redness, inflammation, and other more serious skin issues. Research has shown that an unbalanced microbiome leaves the skin weak and unprotected, a healthy microbiome plays a vital role in our skin health.
DERMA-V’s proprietary blend of 5 skin repairing ingredients supports a healthy microbiome. Derma-V is formulated with prebiotics to repair, antioxidants to prevent damage caused by UV, hydration boosters to smooth the skin, repair boosters (teprenone) to improve skin barrier function and peptides to support collagen and elastin formation. Used at night as a repair cream, Derma-V is ideal for all skin types including sensitive skin.
Ideal for use following dermatological procedures such as chemical peels, Dermapen microneedling, IPL and non-ablative laser.
