How to deal with facial abrasions without leaving scars

If the face is scratched, many people worry about leaving scars. In fact, if you want to avoid leaving scars, you must pay attention to protecting the wound to avoid infection. At the same time, some cosmetics, soaps, etc. should be avoided from contact with the wound. Drink plenty of water and avoid spicy and irritating food.

1. In order to better protect the wound and avoid wound infection, the wound can be bandaged. If the patient's wound is large, surgery is required to suture the wound. Proper wound care after the surgery can also avoid leaving scars.

2. After the stitches are removed or the wound has initially healed , massage therapy and compression therapy may be initiated depending on the situation.

3. Cosmetics, soap, etc. should not come into contact with the wound . Because various cosmetics inevitably contain heavy metals such as lead, mercury, and silver.

4. If the wound has scabbed and is healing well, wait patiently for it to fall off and do not remove it forcibly. Because the epidermal cells that are still being repaired have not grown completely at this time, scars and pigmentation are easily formed without the protection of the hard scab.

5. Itching during wound healing is a normal physiological symptom. Patients should avoid scratching the wound, otherwise it will stimulate local capillary dilation and granulation tissue proliferation, forming scars.

6. You should maintain a happy mood, drink plenty of water, and avoid smoking, drinking, and spicy food.
