Understanding Aesthetic Conduction Therapy
The Aesthetic Surgery | Durham offers aesthetic conduction therapy, a minimally invasive procedure that uses controlled energy to stimulate collagen production and promote skin rejuvenation. The treatment focuses on breaking down scar tissue and promoting new tissue growth, gradually reducing the appearance of self-harm scars.
Benefits of Aesthetic Conduction Therapy
1. Scar Reduction: Aesthetic conduction therapy has been proven effective in reducing the visibility of self-harm scars over time.
2. Improved Skin Texture: The treatment can lead to smoother and more even skin texture, enhancing overall skin appearance.
3. Minimal Downtime: With only 3-5 days of recovery time from each session, individuals can resume their regular activities relatively quickly.
4. Permanent Results: Over the course of 8-12 sessions, the results achieved through aesthetic conduction therapy can be long-lasting and, in some cases, permanent.
Number of Sessions
To achieve the best results, we recommend a minimum of 8-12 sessions. The frequency of sessions may vary based on individual scar severity and skin type.
Procedure Duration
Each aesthetic conduction therapy session typically lasts between 20 to 45 minutes, depending on the size and number of scars being treated.

Recovery Time
Following each session, patients can expect a short recovery time of 3-5 days. During this period, it is essential to keep the treated areas clean and protected.
Immediate Return to Work and Day-to-Day Activities
One significant advantage of aesthetic conduction therapy is that it allows patients to return to work and their daily routines immediately after the procedure. The treatment does not involve any significant downtime, making it a convenient option for busy individuals.
Numbing for Reduced Discomfort
To ensure a comfortable experience, local anaesthesia or numbing cream
is applied to the treatment area before the procedure begins. This helps minimise any discomfort during the aesthetic conduction therapy sessions.
Cost of Aesthetic Conduction Therapy
We understand the importance of making this therapy accessible to those seeking healing from self-harm scars. Therefore, The Aesthetic Surgery | Durham offers a competitive pricing structure, with 8 sessions priced at £450 and 12 sessions at £600. We believe that everyone should have access to safe and effective scar reduction treatments without financial burdens.
