What is Derma|e Scar Gel?
The skin is the largest organ of the body and is our best defense against pathogens. Open skin injuries produce scars after the healing process. It is our body’s natural healing process and how visible these scars become is dependent on a number of factors including, the nature of the injury, healing time, age and race.
Scar tissue is usually pink or red and does not contain sweat glands or hair follicles. Some types of scars can contain blood vessels and nerves, but most do not. Once a scar is formed the skin cannot regenerate itself in that location. Over time, the scar may begin to discolor but is rarely completely disappears.
There are many treatments for scar removal including chemical peels, filler injections, dermabrasion, laser treatment, steroids, semi-occlusive and pressure dressings and radiotherapy. Some of these treatments can be very expensive and they may not be effective at all. Another treatment option that is becoming very popular are natural therapies. They are fast, easy and cost effective. Treatments like derma|e Scar Gel are designed to reduce swelling, redness and pain that come from scarring.
