Long periods underwater or exposure to running water can make the scabs or softened new skin fall off. This prolongs the healing process. Immersion in cold water for more than a minute or two slows down blood flow, which in turn slows down scar healing.
I used the Scarfade Gel after having had three surgeries on the back of my hand, and forearm and I must say – I am definitely impressed with the results. What I thought were going to be a couple of nasty scars due to the size of the incisions are virtually unnoticeable. So now thanks to a skilled surgeon, I am cancer free, and unless I was to point it out, thanks to Scarfade, the surgery is just a story with no visuals. This is truly a great product and I would certainly recommend it to anyone I know.
