How to deal with the later stage of scald?
Whether there is scar after scald is related to whether there is scar constitution, but the most important thing is the depth of scald wound. When scalded to a certain depth, scars will definitely form after self-healing. If you happen to have a scar constitution, the scar will be particularly obvious and even form a keloid in some parts.

In view of this situation, we should pay attention to protect the wound surface after scald, prevent the infection from deepening and promote its healing as soon as possible, which can alleviate the scar to some extent. If the wound is deep, skin graft as soon as possible, and the scar will be smaller later.

After the scald is healed, applying proper scar-removing cream, wearing elastic sleeve, strengthening massage and functional exercise can also reduce the scar, but they can't be completely removed.

If the scar has been formed and the scar condition is stable, plastic surgery can be performed to remove the scar, but patients with scar constitution must be cautious when doing this operation, because the scar may grow back after operation, even more obvious than before. One is to choose a good surgical method during the operation, and the other is to add some methods to prevent scar hyperplasia after the operation, such as local radiotherapy or injection of drugs.
