When you have a scar in a visible spot, you want it to be less visible. A scar cream can help in this situation. It is very important that the scar cream you use is actually effective, because this is not the case for all scar creams.
What is a good scar cream?
The main goal of applying a scar cream regularly is to reduce symptoms of your scar. These symptoms include: redness, itching and pain. When your scar does not itch or isn’t painful, you can consider using a scar cream to reduce the visibility of the scar.
Is the scar cream actually effective?
The most important attribute of a good scar cream is the effectiveness. To know that a scar cream is actually effective, you should look for a scar cream that is supported by scientific evidence.
Is the scar cream easy to use?
Aside from its effect, ease of use of a scar cream is good to consider as well. For example: is it easy to apply? Is it greasy? Does it absorb into the skin?
These factors are important because it takes a long time for scars to heal. You will be using your scar cream for months before certain symptoms disappear and a scar becomes less visible.
If you have a scar in your face, it is very nice if the scar cream absorbs into the skin. This way, you can wear make-up over the scar.
An effective scar cream provides intense hydration
The way a scar cream treats your scar is by providing hydration. Your scar can cause symptoms or continue growing into a hypertrophic or keloid scar if it is not hydrated, and it does not retain moisture. An effective scar cream not only hydrates, but also helps keep the moisture in the skin.
Many hydrating creams only hydrate the skin, after a short while the moisture that was added to the skin often evaporates again. To prevent this you need occlusion, this helps retain the moisture in the skin. So an effective scar cream provides both intense hydration and helps retain the moisture in the skin.
