During the scar recovery, it is also one of the good methods to locally pressurize the scar. Elastic bandages, exercise knee pads and elbow pads, and even wide elastic bands can be used to exert pressure on the outside of scar dressing, which can inhibit scar hyperplasia or promote the softening of hypertrophic scars. The compression time is generally three months to six months or even one year, and it will not stop until the scar is mature and stable or there is no possibility of further contracture. Does not include hospital plastic surgery Pan Shujuan.

Precautions for compression therapy: use it as soon as possible and use it for general wound healing as soon as possible. 2. Generally, the internal pressure should reach 10~ 15mmhg. Three lasting. Continuity of pressurization should be maintained. As long as the patient feels unbearable tension, he can relax and decompress a little, but he can't remove the elastic bandage. Generally, if you keep pressing for 3-6 months, you can see that the scar congestion subsides and the bulge flattens. After 8- 10 months, the pressure can be terminated. The standard of termination is that the scar becomes soft and the face turns white.

2. Use silica gel membrane as soon as possible:

Silica gel can prevent and treat scar hyperplasia. It was found that the content of type ⅲ procollagen in scar tissue increased, hyaluronic acid increased, the function of collagen secretion of fibroblasts was inhibited, and the amount of collagen deposition decreased, which had obvious effects on preventing and treating scars. Regarding the mechanism of silicone gel membrane in treating scar, most scholars tend to say "hydration". The silica gel membrane reduces water evaporation, and the water in the skin transfers to the stratum corneum, so that interstitial water-soluble protein and many low molecular weight water-soluble mixtures diffuse to the surface, reducing interstitial water-soluble substances, reducing hydrodynamic pressure and softening scar tissue. At present, silicone products such as scar lotion and skin care have been applied in clinic.

3. As soon as possible, use dye laser to selectively seal the blood vessels in the scar;

Early scar hyperplasia will turn red and vascular hyperplasia will be obvious. Dye laser or 1064nm laser can selectively seal the hyperplastic blood vessels in the scar and make the scar enter the atrophy stage, with good clinical effect. It is generally recommended to use it as soon as possible, once a month as soon as the wound is taken out.

4. Pay attention to diet:

During the period of scar recovery, you must avoid eating. Don't eat spicy and fishy things (such as peppers, raw onions, raw garlic, mutton, seafood, etc.). ). People with scar constitution can eat more kelp, which has an improvement effect.

5. Sun protection:

Ultraviolet rays can make scars pigmentation, so sun protection is also very important. You can choose to use sunscreen, and scar patches such as skin care can also resist some ultraviolet rays.

The above methods advocate comprehensive use. For example, after the stitches are removed from the wound, the blood vessels in the scar are sealed with dye laser (1 time per month, lasting for more than 3 times), and then the scar is covered with silica gel membrane for 24 hours, and pressurized with elastic sleeve (more than half a year).

The proliferation period of scars is mostly from half a year to one year, so the process of preventing scars is a long-term process. Only "perseverance" can achieve the best results.
