Scar correction
Scars can occur as a result of a surgery or an injury. Although they cannot be “spirited away” they are sometimes significantly improved by correcting operational measures (change of course in a less conspicuous scar direction using the finest suture techniques).
Special scar dressings and scar therapeutic can help the treatment.
You should strictly avoid sunlight on your scars for six month as this may result in pigmentation of the skin around the scar area. If sun exposure is unavoidable you should cover the scars or use creams with SPF 50+.
