How Scars Emotionally Impact Us

How Scars Emotionally Impact Us

Scars are warrior wounds that are shown on those who have ever had their skin severed. Many of us have either undergone surgery, survived an accident, or had severe acne. Some people appreciate their scars and truly see them as a warrior wound but unfortunately this is not the case for most people. Many of us see our scars and are reminded of the surgery we had to undergo or the accident we survived. The physical pain that was once endured on our bodies is now healed but we are left with a visible scar to remind us of the trauma our bodies went through. It is completely normal to have feelings of insecurity, shame, and disgust when viewing our scars. 

Here at Biodermis we offer a variety of procedure specific configurations for managing post-surgical scars in both Epi-Derm and Epi-Derm Natural Silicone Gel Sheeting. We offer individual configurations, such as Areola Circles, Mastopexy Forms, and Areopexy (lolli-pop shape) forms for breast augmentation and breast reconstruction procedures. We also offer complete scar care packages, for the full regimen of post-operative scar treatment and recovery.

We pride ourselves in knowing our specific configurations can help someone heal their scar site and have the comfort in knowing it is covering the exact areas of the scar site. We understand the emotional strain that a scar can have on our mental well being. Epi-Derm silicone sheets and Biodermis' other scar treatment products have been clinically proven to normalize pigmentation / improve discoloration and enhance the overall appearance and texture of both old and new scars. It does so by perfectly balancing oxygen and moisture levels. With the use of our scar care products we truly hope to soften the appearance of your scar.

If you have any concerns such as when to start using silicone scar sheets, we always recommend consulting your doctor to have them look at your scar and make sure the wound is fully healed prior to silicone use. We look forward to helping you with your scar care needs and new
