Is this cream-balm suitable for surgical scars or only for everyday injuries? — cream-balm for scar reduction/care, 10 g-HealerCosmetics

According to the description, the product is intended for caring for recent scars: it helps restore and soften the skin around them. Typical situations are marks left by already healed scratches, cuts, minor burns and pimples.

Post-operative scars are a more complex case. They can be deeper, involve several layers of tissue and require a specific recovery protocol set by a surgeon or dermatologist. It is best to agree on the use of any cosmetic products on a post-operative area with the specialist who managed the treatment — especially in the first months after the procedure.

The cream-balm is not a medicine and is not intended to treat scar tissue in the medical sense. Its purpose is to soften the skin surface, reduce the feeling of tightness and make the area visibly more supple. If a scar is hypertrophic (raised above the skin surface) or keloid, cosmetic care is not enough — a specialist consultation is needed.
