The Best Way to Avoid Scars on Your Face
Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 чер 2024
- There are scientifically-proven ways to minimize scar formation. Start by cleaning the wound and making sure that you're vaccinated against tetanus. Keep the wound moist by using non-medicated ointment like Vaniply. After a few weeks, use a silicone scar gel. Then consider products like Koji Pads to minimize pigment discoloration. As a last resort, surgical intervention can intentionally revise a scar.

Excellent presentation Doctor!
Best explanation ever on healing.
Informative!
Thank you Doctor.
Thank you!
I'm a nurse and used to do a lot of surturing and wound care in the ER. My aftercare would always include keeping the would clean and moist with Vaseline which would encourage healing. I now work in a clinic. My aftercare instructions are the same, but... without putting down anyone... How can I discourage overuse of antibiotic ointment?
Great video!!
Glad you enjoyed it
As always, very informative. Thanks Dr. Nayak!
Hi Mike,
Is DERMATIX ULTRA silicone gel?
Great advice Dr Nayak. Your explanation of the need for Hydrogen Peroxide is not covered by many doctors.
Ty doctor! Is contractubex helpful? Ive heard that contractubex is effective for depressed scars and silicon gel is more suitable for hypertrophic scars, is that true? Some suggest to use both, one at night and one at the evening. 1 month po and my scars look depressed, not sure how to address this…
Just wanted to comment on my experience with a scar that I had from multiple surgeries. It was a scar from surgeries due issues my female organs. I believe it’s called a bikini cut. A horizontal incision just above the pubic hair line. Well after several years that began to cause discomfort when stretching my arms upward. It seemed like the scar was stapled in that area. Anyway I was able to lyse it away with the use of a strong systemic enzyme over a 6 month period of time. Now it’s pliable and does not feel stuck there. It’s not that it looks good but it doesn’t hurt anymore.
Thank you , this was very informative . What do you think about Ayurvedic approach? Aloe vera , turmeric , honey and coconut oil? Until now I used to heal scars like this but now that I removed a bcc from the middle of my face I am very confused. I just removed sutures and was told to only cover with tape and don’t use silicone for another week .
Thank you so much, I just got stitches from a savacious sist on the face. Doctor didnt give me any aftercare instructions I asked what I should use like antiobotic ointment ect. Answer way yes 🤷🙄
