Our Opportunities are Endless

By Sean Lowry On January 29th, 2013

Forget the myths, rumors and old wives’ tales of how to prevent scars…

Many of these rumors are not proven to work, and doing these things can make your wound heal much slower.

Some things you may have been told to do can actually make your scar much worse!

However, if you know how to prevent a scar the correct way, you’ll enjoy scar-free skin later on.

Here are some simple tips to follow that can help you avoid scarring completely:

Tip #1: Limit Hydrogen Peroxide Use

Clean the wound ONCE with hydrogen peroxide or rubbing alcohol. That’s it.

Repeatedly applying hydrogen peroxide to a wound will kill the newly forming skin cells, slow down the healing process, and make your scar worse in the end.

Next, apply an antibacterial ointment like Neosporin.

Doing this will keep the wound moist and clean, giving it the perfect environment to heal.

Tip #2: Keep it Covered

Many people will tell you to let a cut breathe.

This is actually wrong and should NOT be done.

Left to breathe a scab will form to cover and protect the wound, but scabs often leave lots of scar tissue.

To create the optimal healing environment, you need to keep the wound moist and clean by making your own barrier with an antibacterial ointment, as often as possible.

When the would heals in this covered, optimal environment, you’ll avoid scar tissue from even forming.

Tip #3: Use Sunblock

Did you know that fresh scars are very sensitive to sunlight?

Scar tissue and new skin gets sun burned much faster than regular skin.

A scar that is exposed to the sun will turn very red and ultimately become hyperpigmented.

By putting sunblock onto your fresh scars, you will decrease its pigmentation and visibility.

Achieving Permanent, Scar-free Skin

There are many other important scar prevention techniques to keep you scar-free after skin damage. Proper early scar treatment can shorten healing time and reveal flawless, scar-free skin.

And despite what doctors or dermatologists tell you, scars are actually not permanent.

Which means you can rejoice in the fact that you can fade or eliminate your old scars completely without costly scar creams or surgeries.
