Preventing Unsightly Scars
Page includes graphic images – viewer discretion advised
Once a surgical wound has closed, the stitches removed and the consultant signed you off, that’s usually it. You now have a fresh scar that still needs caring for to get the best cosmetic appearance, but we’re rarely taught how
Fresh Scar Tissue
Micropore Tape
Simply tape over the scar with micropore tape, easily found in chemists, 2.5cm x 10m costs about £4
- The width of the tape you use should completely cover and support the scar, surrounding it by about 1cm.
- The tape should be applied to a clean scar with no greasiness on the surrounding skin. Apply the tape firmly.
- The tape must be left on until it comes off naturally (5 to 7 days), and replaced. Do not remove daily as this will cause irritation.
- Continue taping until the scar matures, becoming pale and flat. This may take a couple of months.
This method must not be used on wounds, or skin that has any broken surface

MediTatu ® Treating Mature Scars & Stretch Marks
When stretch marks are no longer fresh pink, and scars older than 6 months (usually white), they are considered mature and need waking up before these creams will benefit. Dry tattooing wakes up the skin
