How to remove scars on the face

If scars appear on our body, we are very self-conscious about them, but if scars appear on our face, it will be a disaster. Scars on our face will seriously damage our image and make us look hideous, so we must find a way to remove the scars on our face. However, the skin on our face is so sensitive that if we are not careful during treatment, it may cause damage to the skin on our face.

We must do a good job of preventing facial scars. Once a wound appears on the face, we must know how to deal with it scientifically. In addition, we can use some folk remedies to remove scars.

1. [What to do if you have scars on your face] Prevention

Scars do not appear for no reason, but are caused by many reasons such as scalds from hot water, burns from cooking, or knife wounds. It is precisely because of these bumps and bruises in life that we get those hateful scars that later affect our beauty. Therefore, before learning how to remove scars, you should learn how to protect yourself.

1. Go to the hospital in time to have the doctor clean, disinfect, suture or bandage the wound. People often worry that cleaning the wound will waste time, cause more bleeding or make the wound bigger, or even refuse to clean it simply because they are afraid of pain. In fact, cleaning the wound carefully is the most basic step to avoid scars and promote wound healing. For example, if dust, coal ash and other debris are embedded in the skin after an injury, if they are not cleaned properly, colored particles will remain in the skin and form unsightly dust stains. Disinfection is to prevent infection, which is also the key to avoiding local scars, because infection can cause damage to the lower layer of the dermis, and the epidermis cannot regenerate, so the defects have to be filled by the proliferation of granulation tissue, which will inevitably leave scars.

1. After the wound scabs, be patient and wait for it to fall off on its own. People often dislike the unsightly black scabs, or out of curiosity, they can't help but forcibly peel off the scabs too early. At this time, the epidermal cells that are still being repaired have not yet fully grown, and without the protection of the hard scab, it is easy to form scars and pigmentation. Sometimes the newly grown epidermal cells may be accidentally removed, which may stimulate local inflammatory response and hinder wound healing.

2. Don’t scratch the wound while it’s healing. When the wound heals, it will feel itchy. Using scratching, hot water washing, clothing friction and other methods to relieve the itching will stimulate the local capillary dilation and granulation tissue proliferation to form scars.

3. Pay attention to your diet. In terms of diet, irritating foods such as wine, pepper, mutton, raw garlic, ginger, mustard, coffee, etc. can also promote the growth of scars. If you take medicines containing lead or mercury, it will promote pigmentation.

4. Sun protection is also important. The summer sun is hot and abundant, but newborn skin is tender and cannot resist the ultraviolet radiation in the sun, so it is easy to form pigmentation.

5. Be careful when washing and applying makeup. Cosmetics, soap, etc. should not come into contact with the wound. Because various cosmetics inevitably contain heavy metals such as lead, mercury, silver, and photosensitive substances, they will stimulate the increase of skin pigmentation.

1. Cut the potatoes into thin slices and place them directly on the blemished skin. Remove and wash after 15 minutes. It is usually used to treat acne caused by excessive oil, remove dead cells, and eliminate facial puffiness. It is suitable for oily skin with acne.

2. Chop the scallion into small pieces, add an egg and mix thoroughly; pour out the prepared liquid, add coix seed powder or flour and mix thoroughly; apply the prepared mask on the scar once a day, remember to use it at night, wash it off after 20-30 minutes, and then apply toner. Among them, the white part of the scallion is rich in vitamin C and has the effect of whitening and removing scars.

If you are super lazy, you can also peel off a thin layer of green onion while watching TV and put it directly on your scar. It has a certain effect on removing scars. For convenience, it is best to fix it with a Band-Aid.

3. Massage can promote blood circulation, remove blood stasis, and dredge muscles and bones. It is beneficial to many aspects of the body, including scars. Massage is a good choice for newly formed scars that have just shed blood scabs. Massage is simple, easy, free of charge, and effective. Specific operation method: Gently rub the scar at the base of your palm, 3 times a day, each time for about 10 minutes.

4. Slice fresh ginger, gently rub the scar with the ginger slices, then apply the ginger slices to the scar area for a while, then remove and replace it with a new piece, repeat two or three times. You can do this once or twice a day and keep doing it to remove the scars. Because ginger has the effect of inhibiting the growth of granulation tissue, thereby weakening scar formation and growth.

5. It is very important to choose a product that suits you. It is best to use professional scar removal products.

6. Vitamin C has a good whitening effect. If the scar is dark in color, you might as well try applying vitamin C powder on the scar, which can effectively reduce the pigmentation of acne scars, promote whitening, and gradually restore the color of healthy skin. Vitamin E has a moisturizing effect, can enhance the elasticity of the skin, and is easier to penetrate the skin into the subcutaneous tissue. It is also a good medicine for scar removal.
