Treatment at home
Treating scars at home offers individuals with a cost-effective and convenient way to minimise their appearance. Also by continuing with treating your scars in combination with other professional services will improve the overall outcome.
While complete scar removal may not be possible without professional intervention, there are several options available for home treatment. One common method is the application of topical creams or gels containing ingredients such as silicone, vitamin E, or onion extract, which can help soften and flatten scars over time. Another popular technique is massaging the scar tissue regularly, as this can promote blood circulation and break down collagen build-up, leading to improved scar texture
It is important to be patient during the scar healing process, as it may take several months or even years for significant improvement to occur. Regularly moisturising the scar with a fragrance-free, hypoallergenic lotion or cream can help keep the area hydrated and supple.
For hypertrophic or keloid scars that appear raised and thick, applying pressure using silicone sheets or silicone-based scar gels and creams can aid in flattening the scar over time. However, it is essential to consult with a healthcare professional before starting any home scar treatment, especially if the scar is extensive, painful, or accompanied by other symptoms.
