【Laiwo Medical :Knowledge Sharing】Is there a golden time for scar repair? Attention should be paid to those with scars on their bodies~

Publish Date: 2025/3/5


       Scars are the marks left on the skin after injury, and also a proof of our body's healing ability. However, due to differences in shape and color from the original skin, they affect the appearance and become a problem for many people. Therefore, the repair time and special attention during the repair process of scars have become the focus of everyone's attention.



The golden period of scar lightening, reducing scar formation

       The formation of scars can be roughly divided into two stages. The first stage is the hemostasis period and inflammation period. At this time, the wound has not yet healed, so it is important to avoid contact with water and follow medical advice to disinfect and change dressings on time to prevent infection, promote faster and better wound healing, and reduce the risk of scar hyperplasia caused by prolonged non healing. The second stage is the proliferation phase and remodeling phase. After about two weeks, the wound will show a healing state and begin to enter the proliferation phase, which lasts for about six months or more. This period is the "golden age" of scar lightening. Simply put, once the wound grows well and scabs naturally fall off, we can start the scar lightening action!



       At this point, we can choose products containing silicone for care. Silicone can hydrate and seal the stratum corneum of the skin, thereby altering the tissue structure of scars, making them softer, smaller, and even changing color. At the same time, silicone can improve the microenvironment for cell growth, enhance skin elasticity, and effectively prevent the formation of hypertrophic scars.



Sunscreen is very important, you must pay attention to it

       Many people behave in a scientific and standardized manner during the early stages of care, but they overlook the important aspect of sun protection. In theory, although normal skin may darken after exposure to ultraviolet radiation, it will gradually return to its original skin color over time. The skin at the scar site is delicate and susceptible to UV radiation, leading to increased pigmentation, hyperplasia, redness, itching, allergies, and other discomfort symptoms. Therefore, it is necessary to do a good job of sun protection, cover scar areas, and avoid exposure to ultraviolet rays.



       Scar repair is a race against time, in which we need to fully understand its healing process and accurately grasp the golden period of repair. Only in this way can the skin be rejuvenated. At the same time, Laiwo Medical kindly reminds us that scar repair is not achieved overnight. It requires us to maintain a calm mindset, take care of ourselves carefully, and let every effort turn into the power of skin regeneration.
