This month I write the story of an injury that I incurred and the Do-It-Yourself (DIY) practices I followed to treat and heal a 2-inch forehead laceration. I describe the wound healing methods that I used for six-weeks and subsequent treatments to manage the scar. It may take 3 months to a year for scars to complete healing.

I recently acquired a 2-inch scar that runs down the middle of my forehead and as a result, learned new (to me) information on skin care as I researched “laceration healing progression” and “atrophic scar management”. Atrophic scars are those scars that form a depression in the skin surface and may result from acne or trauma.
Subcision is a simple medical procedure that uses a sharp needle to release connective tissue beneath a scar.
