Assessments
& Consultations

Would you like recommendations for your own scar situation? We offer online consultations and assessments that will help you to easily manage your own scars.

Online Self Management

Manage your own scar(s) and soft tissue injuries, at your own pace, and in your own home.

Our courses are packed with easy-to-understand information, with demonstration of practical treatment strategies that you can use to help treat your own scars and affected area.

Please note however, that if your surgery, trauma or injury was less than one month ago, you may not be suitable for scar management just yet, and so only basic information will be available to you at this time. 

To help us customise your course, and to ensure that we meet your specific scar needs, please:
1. Click on the body to choose your affected body area
2. Click on the relevant filters below
3. Click on ‘Find Course’.

You will be presented with a comprehensive list of ALL of the course content that relates to your affected body area, and the filters that were chosen. You will have 12 months access to your chosen course from the date of purchase.

Don’t delay – Enrol now!
