One of the concepts poorly understood is the fact that 90% of the basis of preventing scarring is hydration.
This is the same principle that is used in surgical wounds. This is the reason alginate dressings are used. They minimise the risk of scarring. The problem with most acne treatments is they strip the skin and dehydrate it, which means lesions take much longer to heal.
This is why our facial protocols focus on increasing and retaining hydration. Wounds heal better in a moist environment. So the next time you go to dry out that pimple. Think if that’s what you really want.
