Burn Scars

[turnblue]

Is there anyway to get rid of the pink skin after a burn? Perhaps a cream?

get a good quality moisturiser and some vitamin E capsules ... break the capsules and add the vitamin E liquid to the moisturiser and mix well, then massage in twice a day and over time it should help the scar tissue .... hope this helps

Keep the scarred area out of the direct sunlight...it will turn it bright red...keep it covered or use a very high sun block...

Make sure you get plenty of zinc - that helps skin heal itself. Also you can use calendula salve on it, or aloe vera gel. I've also heard of people using Swedish bitters on the scar to make it disappear.

I've never tried them so don't know if they work but you can buy plasters to help fade scars and heal cuts more quickly.
