Scar Treatments
Is your cut, scrape, or burn scarring? The good news is that it's healing—the wound is being patched with repaired skin. The not-so-good news: Scars are typically darker or pinker than the surrounding skin. Over-the-counter treatments may help improve the color and texture of scars.
