Khaberni - Scars often represent a significant psychological burden, especially if they are large or located in prominent places such as the face or hand. So how can these scars be dealt with?
To answer this question, German physical therapy specialist Nils Pringland explained that if the scar is purely a cosmetic issue, one can resort to simple cosmetic solutions such as adjusting the skin tone using camouflage makeup or tattooing.
Pringland added that the scar might also represent a health issue, as it could be accompanied by functional disorders, for example, if the scar is tight and restricts movement.
In this case, one can resort to surgical correction, where, for example, scars can be corrected by excising them and closing them with a finer surgical thread.
One can also turn to psychological therapy such as cognitive behavioral therapy, which teaches the affected individual coping strategies to accept and live with the scar.
