At SkinMedics on Cohen Street, we utilize advanced technology to support your skin’s natural recovery at a cellular level. For patients looking to improve the appearance, texture, and flexibility of new or existing scars, we offer specialized K-Laser Photobiomodulation (PBM) therapy—a non-invasive treatment designed to optimize tissue remodeling and accelerate healing.

Whether you are recovering from a surgical incision, an injury, or managing a stubborn scar, K-Laser PBM harnesses precision near-infrared light to transform how skin heals from the inside out.

How K-Laser Photobiomodulation Works for Scars

K-Laser therapy uses specific Class IV wavelengths of light to interact directly with dermal cells through a biological process called photobiomodulation:

  • Cellular Biostimulation (ATP): Laser energy is absorbed by the mitochondria within your cells, dramatically increasing the production of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) to accelerate cellular repair and tissue regeneration.
  • Collagen Remodeling: Unbalanced or excessive collagen deposition often leads to thick, raised, or rigid scars. K-Laser helps regulate fibroblast activity, encouraging orderly, flexible collagen alignment to soften and flatten scar tissue.
  • Enhanced Micro-Circulation: The treatment dilates local blood vessels and improves oxygen and nutrient delivery to the healing tissue, speeding up overall recovery and reducing discoloration.
  • Inflammation & Tension Reduction: Rapidly calms post-procedure inflammation, easing tightness, itching, and discomfort associated with healing skin.

Key Benefits of the Treatment

  • Improves Scar Texture & Flexibility: Softens rigid, tight scar tissue, improving mobility and comfort—especially over joints or active areas.
  • Fades Discoloration: Promotes balanced healing to help blend the scar more evenly with your surrounding natural skin tone.
  • Accelerates Post-Surgical Recovery: Can be integrated early in the recovery process to support clean, rapid healing of closed surgical incisions.
  • Completely Non-Invasive & Pain-Free: Involves zero needles or downtime, delivering a soothing, warm sensation during each quick session.

What to Expect During Your Appointment

  1. Clinical Assessment: Your clinician evaluates the age, maturity, and type of your scar to determine the ideal laser parameters and treatment frequency.
  2. The Treatment (approx. 5–15 minutes): You relax comfortably while your clinician gently passes the K-Laser emitter over the scar area. You will experience a pleasant, deep-penetrating warmth.
  3. Cumulative Results: While some softening can be felt early on, scar remodeling is a progressive process. A series of targeted sessions is typically recommended for optimal, long-lasting improvement.

Who is K-Laser Scar Therapy For?

This treatment is ideal if you are looking to manage:

  • Post-surgical scars (once incisions are fully closed)
  • Traumatic scars or injury marks
  • Hypertrophic (raised) scars or areas of tight, restricted skin tension
  • A desire to optimize overall skin healing and cosmetic outcomes

Testimonials

I was sent to Dr Bezzina by my GP for a huge lipoma on my back, it was grapefruit sized. Dr Bezzina surgically removed it and I’m so impressed with the outcome, others told me it couldn’t be done without a general anaesthetic and for four times the cost! Dr Bezzina is not super cheap but well worth his expertise
I was referred by my gp to Dr Bezzina for skin cancer removal on my face. He did a great job and pain free. Looks really neat and Dr Bezzina is just a really friendly guy that loves to have a chat. Definitely would recommend him 🙂
I was referred to Dr Damien by my usual GP to remove a skin cancer the the side of my nose, Damien surgically removed it in what was a largely painless process. His bedside manner was fantastic and he has great nursing support. Now 6 weeks later and you can hardly tell I have a skin flap on my nose! So pleased! Thank you for your hard work!
Dr Bezzina performed minor surgery on me today for a skin lesion. I was very happy with his expertise, patient engagement, explanations when asked. I will become a regular client.
Nothing but magic! Put me at ease, excellent job and worth every $
Damien was very professional and friendly. He explained things very clearly and provided great advice. I’ll be back for my annual skin check.
Excellent advice. Very professional and easy to talk to. Recommended.
Bedside manner is wonderful, warm and knowledgeable. Left feeling enlightened. I had surgery for a skin cancer on my hand and I still can’t believe the result are so good! Thank you again, 100% recommend and I love the country music playing during the surgery!
Amazing, just amazing! Been to many ‘skin doctors’ around Canberra and my home state of QLD and Damien is by far the most proficient skin surgeon I’ve met! Diagnosed melanoma within the first couple mins of skin check when was check 2 weeks earlier by another skin Doctor and told was all good. Damien removed the melanoma within 7 days and healed beautifully! Thank you again
