Solihull cosmetic doctor named as one of the UK's 10 leading cosmetic doctors
Dr Victor Sagoo was also named the number one cosmetic doctor outside of London
Cosmetic skin doctor and medical director, Dr Victor Sagoo, of The Solihull Medical Cosmetic Clinic in Marston Green has been named as one of UK’s 10 leading cosmetic doctors by a world-renowned cosmetic website Tajmeeli.
The international website is based in the Middle East and Dubai and has over 800,000 followers per month.
The article, published on September 7, 2019 by Tajmeeli, states that every year, a large number of people from all over the world seek cosmetic surgery.
Even with a vast number of advanced medical centres that provide health services of the highest quality, and the availability of a group of the best doctors and surgeons in cosmetic medicine, Dr Sagoo was named as number two in the UK alongside nine other cosmetic doctors, and was the only one based outside London.
High-Quality Lasers & Techniques to Treat Acne Scars
Unlike many clinics which use low-power inferior CO2 and non-ablative lasers. These devices do not have the same capability as the lasers that Dr. Sagoo uses in his practice.
Dr. Sagoo's passion for treating acne and scarring in cosmetic dermatology and laser surgery has led him to invest only in the best laser equipment worldwide to get the best results possible. The best equipment combined with his specialist knowledge in cutaneous laser surgery makes him one of the UK's leading doctors in acne scar management and number for treating asian skin scarring.
Dr Sagoo's treatments are advanced laser and non-laser skin treatments. They are not aesthetic treatments performed by salons, spas, or low-level cosmetic medical clinics. The treatment will give the highest degree of improvement in acne scarring but needs to be performed in a medically controlled environment under special types of local anaesthetic. As a result, the clinic is regulated and inspected by the Care Quality Commission (CQC) to make sure that the highest quality of standards and services are adhered to, and the best possible care is offered to their patients.
For these advanced treatments, Dr Sagoo will have to use local anaesthetic injections or tumescent anaesthesia to achieve optimal results.

Alternative Treatments To Acne Scarring
Dr Sagoo may also use several adjunctive techniques to treat scars, such as:
- 9 different lasers
- Medical Subcision
- Punch excision of acne scars
- TCA Cross (Chemical Reconstruction of Skin Scars)
- Radiofrequency micro needling
- Steroid injections
- Protein-rich plasma
There are many treatments that are available for the treatment of acne scarring, but unfortunately, most of these are mild, low-grade aesthetic/beauty therapy treatments.
There are many clinics that may advertise the use of CO2 laser, but these devices are usually of relatively low power. These devices can only achieve a much milder result in the treatment of acne scarring. This is because of the devices' low-powered, fractional only nature. We are a medical specialist clinic. Patients come to us when they have not received favourable outcomes to treat their scars, as they have been promised false expectations or have been treated incorrectly with the wrong devices for the scarring. 50% of Dr. Sagoo's work is to reverse and improve scars which have not improved elsewhere.
Whilst patients may go some way to helping in the treatment of acne scarring, they cannot deliver the type of results that Dr. Sagoo will achieve. This is because he uses advanced medical-grade lasers.
What is acne scarring?
Acne scarring is a reaction to the inflammation in the skin caused by acne. During the inflammatory process, the tissue is destroyed. As the body attempts to heal the skin, a reaction called fibrosis occurs. Fibrosis leads to changes in the texture of the skin that can make it thinner (called atrophic) or thicker (called hypertrophic) than normal skin. Scarring is permanent. Thus, Acne scar treatment early, before scar formation and discolouration, is crucial.
