I only knew that kind of fragile, scarred skin from my mother—until it suddenly happened to me too.

Now I see exactly the same problem – not only in my patients… but also in myself.

By Dr. Carla Botha, dermatologist – June 25, 2025

I was about seven or eight years old when I first really noticed my mother's skin.

She was strong, loving and full of warmth.

But her skin… it felt like tissue paper. Thin and almost transparent.

I still remember how even the smallest bump left a mark – and how old scars just stayed put and never went away.

At the time I thought: “This is probably what older skin looks like.”

But today – as a doctor – I know what it really meant:

Skin that has lost its natural ability to heal.

And I can feel that it is now starting with myself.

If left untreated, damaged skin not only looks older – it loses its ability to heal from scars, wounds and bruises.

This is what fragile, scar-prone skin ends up looking like when it's allowed to deteriorate.

As a dermatologist, I have spent over 20 years studying how scars occur – and why some never go away.

But what still surprises me the most?

How quickly it can happen.

Many of my patients say:

“Everything seemed fine… and then one day I woke up and suddenly my skin looked different. Discolored. Damaged. Filled with old scars I had never noticed before.”

The truth is – it doesn't happen overnight. But it feels that way.

It starts after surgery. Or weight loss. Or pregnancy.

Sometimes just after a hard and stressful year.

First comes tension and itching.

Then the skin becomes drier, thinner – and old wounds refuse to heal.

Suddenly the mirror image no longer feels like you.

And here's what most people don't know:

It's not just about what the scars look like.

As we age, the skin becomes more fragile – and more vulnerable.

Even small injuries can leave permanent marks.

Even tight clothing can irritate the skin.

And even the smallest blows can cause bruises that last for weeks.

I have had patients who said:

“It doesn’t just feel like aging – it feels like my skin has given up.”

What is scar-prone skin – and why should you take it seriously?

Scar-prone skin is a sign that the body's natural healing system is going into overdrive.

From a medical perspective, this means that collagen production has decreased, the skin's protective barrier has weakened, and the skin can no longer regenerate as it used to.

After the age of 40, collagen levels can drop by up to 30% in just a few years – especially after pregnancy or menopause.

That's why this happens:

• Small scratches turn into scars.
• Bruises disappear more slowly.
• And the skin feels thinner, tighter and more sensitive than ever before.

This is exactly why so many – even in their 30s and 40s – feel like strangers in their own skin.

Fragile, scar-prone skin is not just a cosmetic problem.

It is a clear medical sign:

Your skin is losing its ability to repair itself.

And it has visible consequences:

– The skin becomes thin and sensitive

– Even slight friction can cause tears or bleeding

– Scars appear more easily – and stay in place longer

– The skin begins to become loose – especially around the stomach, chest, arms and thighs

Most people I treat think:

“I guess it's just part of getting older.”

And once they see the first signs of scars, they think it's too late.

My own mother thought the same thing.

But she didn't have the opportunities we have today.

I'm not just a dermatologist – I'm also a woman who has personally experienced how the skin loses its strength.

A few years ago, I myself started to notice the first changes in my skin:

Old scars on my thighs, which had otherwise faded… suddenly started to become visible again.

I tried all the creams I could find.

None of them made any difference.

Like many others, I didn't want injections, harsh peels, or laser treatments.

I was looking for something that was safe, natural, and effective – but still strong enough to provide visible, noticeable results.

So I started working with a team of dermatologists, skin researchers and wound healing experts…

to develop something that could do what nothing else could:

– Erase even the most stubborn scars

– Strengthen fragile skin

– Protect against further damage

The result? ScarBan Pro™

A transdermal patch with medical-grade silicone and microneedle technology – designed to reduce the visibility of scars by up to 98% in just 6 days, while restoring the skin's natural strength and resilience.

Most creams focus only on moisture.

But when your skin no longer heals like it used to – moisture is not enough.

You need something that helps your skin do what it once did naturally:

regenerate, rebuild collagen and ensure long-term repair.

That's why we created ScarBan Pro™ – a dermatologist-developed patch with documented efficacy that:

✅ Reduces the visibility of scars by up to 98% – in just 6 days

✅ Relieves itching, tension and tightness in scarred or fragile skin

✅ Supports the skin's own collagen production and healing process

✅ Is ultra-thin, waterproof and designed to be worn 24/7 - even in the shower

This is not just another cosmetic product.

ScarBan Pro™ strengthens your skin from the inside out.

It doesn't just make your scars look lighter – it helps your skin become smoother, stronger, and more resilient.

That's why I use it myself - and recommend it to all my patients.

It's not about having perfect skin.

It's about feeling confident in your body at any age – without scars holding you back.

Because getting older shouldn't mean living with damaged skin.

And visible scars shouldn't mean you have to hide your body away.

I was the first to try it. Then 30 women from my skin clinic – aged 18 to 80 – tested the ScarBan Pro™ patches themselves.

"I couldn't believe it when people stopped asking about the scar. It's like it was never there."

“I never imagined they could fade so much. My skin looks smooth again – and feels just like that.”

“I never imagined they could fade so much. My skin looks smooth again – and feels just like that.”

👉 Discover what helped them erase years of scars – and why 9 out of 10 women over 50 now swear by ScarBan Pro™.

Over 90% experienced smoother, cleaner and visibly restored skin – after just one week.

Some had tears in their eyes when they saw themselves in the mirror again.

Because it's not just about making scars fade. It's about finally feeling at home in your own skin.

“If ScarBan Pro had existed when my mother was alive… I’m sure she would have worn her favorite sleeveless blouse again – without shame.”
