Patient's question:
A three-year-old child was scalded on the neck with boiling water a year ago. Now, scars have formed, and the scar area is red, itchy, and raised.Doctor's answer:
Methods for scar removal include:1. Ginger scraping method: Slice ginger and gently rub the scar, which can inhibit the continued growth of granulation tissue.
2. Vitamin E application method: Vitamin E can penetrate the skin to moisturize it while also maintaining skin elasticity. Break open a vitamin E capsule with a needle, take the liquid, and apply it to the scar, gently massaging for 5-10 minutes. Do this twice a day for consistent results.
3. Vitamin C application method: Vitamin C has whitening effects. Apply it to darker scars to lighten them, making them match the tone of the surrounding healthy skin.
