Scar Treatment Myths That May Delay Your Recovery

Myth 1: Scars Will Always Fade on Their Own

Some scars improve naturally, but others persist for life without treatment.

Myth 2: Vitamin E Cream Removes Scars

Studies show little to no benefit.

Myth 3: Sun Exposure Helps Scars Fade

UV rays darken scars, making them more dark and noticeable. Sunscreen is essential.

Myth 4: Home Remedies Work as Well as Medical Care

DIY scrubs, oils, or masks may soothe skin but can lead to skin irritation and redness, but cannot remodel scar tissue.

Trust evidence-based care. Dermatologists use proven treatments that actually work.
