Many people notice that their scars become more visible during the summer. This can be frustrating and even embarrassing for some. But why does this happen? And what can you do to make scars less noticeable?
Sun Darkens Your Skin
There are a few main reasons why scars may become more noticeable in the hot summer months. One of the main reasons is increased exposure to the sun. Scars are often lighter than the surrounding skin. As your undamaged skin tans, the scar tissue does not and becomes more pronounced and noticeable.
Dehydration
Dehydration is another factor contributing to the increased visibility of scars in the summertime. When the body is dehydrated, the skin can become dry and flaky. This can make scars appear more prominent and noticeable, as the dry skin around the scar tissue can accentuate its appearance.
Combat Noticeable Scars with Medical-Grade Silicone Gel
What can you do if you're concerned about the visibility of your scars during the summer months? Stay hydrated and keep your skin moisturized, including your scars. Plus, you can fight back against visible scars that embarrass you with medical-grade silicone you apply in the privacy of your own home. Pur-Sil Pure Scar Care is a topical gel that flattens, softens and makes scars less visible. Instead of using sticky silicone sheets, apply this soothing scar care gel as part of your daily skin care routine to reduce the appearance of scars in any location. This top-quality product is excellent for:
Acne scars
Wound scars
Surgery scars
C-section scars
Cancer scars
Silicone gel is proven to reduce fibroblast production, reduce excessive collagen production and increase the hydration of scar tissue. It also reduces the itching and discomfort many experience with scars. Pur-Sil Pure Scar Care silicone gel is easily applied to any body part, including the face, joints and other moving parts from head to toe. It is also safe for reducing visible scars on children and those with sensitive skin. Apply the gel liberally to your troublesome scars twice daily until they disappear. Some may need to use silicone gel for up to 90 days for more extensive scarring.
