Do you want to reduce and lighten the scars on your skin?
Scars are part of our lives. Most of us probably have at least one scar in our bodies. Scars form when an injury penetrates the first layer of the skin. Scars appear when the body is trying to heal the wound. In the healing process, new collagen fibers are formed in the affected area. Scars can be sunken or raised. They may look pink at first but after the wound heals, the scar will either look darker or lighter than the surrounding skin. We can get scars from the following:
1. Scars can appear on any part of the body due to an accident or injury that hurts the skin very badly.
2. Scars can be caused by prolonged acne marks on the skin that tend to become permanent.
3. Scars from minor or major burns don’t look good in general. They may be big and dark.
4. Surgeries leave marks and scars on the body that are usually permanent.
5. Pregnancy can also leave scars on the stomach, back and other parts of the body.
Most scars, especially old ones are almost impossible to get rid of. On the other hand, some scars fade over time with exposure to sunlight. Better wound healing can minimize the formation of scars. Using essential oils while the wound is healing can help minimize scarring. Essential oils have anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties that promote proper healing of wounds and reduce the chances of scars. Even though it’s hard to get rid of scars, we can use essential oils to reduce their appearance and make them less visible. They work by regenerating the skin cells of damaged skin. Essential oils can also support skin health by balancing skin tone, reducing redness and inflammation.
ESSENTIAL OIL ROLLER BOTTLE TO REDUCE SCARS
Frankincense oil is effective in treating scars because it can soothe the skin, even out skin tone and kill bacteria. Frankincense essential oil also promotes the growth of new skin cells, therefore tightening the skin. This oil works well for dry skin and stretch marks. Frankincense also helps maintain healthy skin.
Lavender essential oil has anti-fungal and anti-bacterial properties, ideal for diminishing scars on the skin. It can also repair the damaged skin around the scar by revitalizing the production of new skin cells. Lavender essential oil is also great for wrinkles.
Sunflower oil is known for its ability to lighten the appearance of scars and dark sports. The linoleic acid in sunflower oil is an anti-inflammatory agent that helps heal the skin, retain moisture and repair the skin barrier.
