A scar is a mark left on the skin after a wound or injury has healed. When the skin is injured, the body initiates a complex healing process to repair the damage. This process involves the formation of new collagen fibres, a protein that helps to strengthen and rebuild the tissue. Unlike normal skin tissue, the collagen in scars is arranged differently, making the scar tissue fibrotic, less elastic, and often less functional than pre-injury tissue. Furthermore, adhesions may form in the presence of excess or prolonged inflammation, both at the scar site on the surface and in the surrounding tissue below.
Scar and Stretch Mark Oil 50ml
This scar oil is formulated to be used once the scar has fully healed over. Initially you will just be gently pressing the oil into the scar area, and as it continues to heal, increase the pressure and massage deeper in small circular motions. Consistency is key, and the oil should be applied once or twice daily.
The best time to apply this oil is immediately after a bath or shower, while your skin is still slightly damp. Place a couple of pumps into the palm of one hand (depending on the size of the scar) and warm the oil with the pads of the fingers of the other hand. Gently press the oil in and around the scar and then continue to massage more deeply as the weeks go on, feeling for harder areas, as this will help to prevent adhesions forming.
Adhesions are bands of scar tissue that can form between internal organs and tissues, causing them to stick together where they shouldn't normally be connected. These bands can develop after surgery, injury, or inflammation in the abdomen or pelvis, and are a normal part of the body's healing process. While they often don't cause problems, they can sometimes lead to pain or complications like bowel obstruction.
