Managing scars the natural way
SCARS are the result of the natural process of wound healing when the skin naturally produces collagen to quickly repair the injured tissues. The type of scars formed depends on the severity and area of injury and immediate wound care. Superficial cuts, which affect the upper layers of the epidermis, will normally heal without scarring.
Deeper dermal wound causes scarring like deep cuts, surgical operation, accident, a bad breakout, chickenpox and burn. Some scars are raised like keloids and some, like breakout scars are pitted.
For serious scars or for those concerned with aesthetics, there are invasive treatments such as laser resurfacing, chemical peels to flatten and smoothen the scars or steroid injection to loosen the scar tissues or soft tissue fillers for pitted scars.
However, such treatments may or may not improve the scars.
Natural remedy for scar repair
Good scar care is important to prevent excessive scarring and speed up scar healing. For good breakout scar care and prevention of excessive breakout scars, apply Garden of Eden Rosa T Acne Serum, which contains Tea Tree Oil – a natural anti-bacterial product to help clear breakouts and reduce scarring.
For cuts, bruises and hot water scalds apply Garden of Eden Natur E Scar Serum, which contains concentrated Natural Vitamin E to sooth and reduce inflammation of the affected area.
Natural Vitamin E is well known for its anti-inflammatory effect on damaged skin tissues. Applying Natur E Scar Serum helps reduce inflammation of injured skin and delivers the healing properties of natural vitamin E.
The antioxidant effect of natural vitamin E in Natur E Scar Serum helps protect and strengthen damaged skin against free radical attack on the wound, promoting faster healing. Free radicals are generated when skin is under stress from a trauma inflicted on the skin.
Applying Natur E Scar Serum helps reduce free radical effect and promotes better scar recovery. Natur E Scar Serum is good for post-surgery scars for its anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant effect. As part of the scar healing process, it is important to keep the affected area moist, particularly when the wound dries up and scabs form.
Natural vitamin E is an excellent natural emollient with essential skin nutrients to keep the healing wound moist and protected, reducing skin dryness and tightness as the scabs form as in the case of chickenpox scabs, burns, cuts and wounds.
The other goodness of natural vitamin E is its collagen synthesis effect on the skin, particularly for breakout scars, which are pitted scars. Natur E Scar Serum is recommended for post breakout, which leaves dark marks and blemishes.
Natur E Scar Serum helps smoothen and lighten breakout scars and skin imperfections while toning the skin.
Apply Natur E Scar Serum twice daily on affected areas after cleansing morning and night or as often as required for best results. Natur E Scar Serum comes in 5ml and 15ml pack.
