Scars develop as a result of injury to the skin. This is a normal process and may be due to cuts,
burns or crush injuries. Scars develop both on and below the skin. Your body makes fibres out
of something called collagen to strengthen the scar.
The longer a wound takes to heal or the more damaged the skin, the more chance the scar will
be thicker and less flexible. Scar tissue is never as good as the skin or tissue it replaces.
Your age and skin type can also affect how a scar forms and behaves.
Adhesions are bands of scar tissue that anchor and support the wound. These bind together all
the tissue with which they come into contact. You can think of adhesions as internal scar tissue.
How Scar Massage Works.
Scar massage is a way of softening and flattening scars. It can stop scar tissue build up and
help make scars less noticeable. Your scar or scars will continue to grow and change for about
twelve to eighteen months, so the earlier and more regularly you massage your scar, the less
the chance of long-term problems.
Scar massage can help:
reduce itchiness or over-sensitivity of scars
moisturise your scar if you use cream
improve the flexibility, mobility and softness of scars
make collagen form more evenly by applying pressure.
