Scars can appear anywhere on the body that has experienced skin breaking. They may look red, pink or purple and have a raised texture.
The healing process forms scars after trauma to the skin. The skin may be broken due to an accident or injury, or surgical intervention. When the skin is injured, fibrous scar tissue builds up to protect and repair the damaged skin.
Depending on the scar, its appearance can be reduced at Bodyvie with laser technology or injections to restore skin texture.
The symptoms of scarring can be a build-up of scar tissue which can be red or purple and have a texture which may feel like a lump. Some scars may become flat over time.
Scars can be difficult to prevent, as many are caused by surgery or accidental trauma. You can avoid high-risk activities to avoid skin breaking. It is also recommended not to pick acne spots to prevent acne scarring.
