Brilio.net - Having scars on the face that are difficult to remove is a problem for a number of people. Scars on the face not only affect physical appearance, but also reduce a person's self-confidence. It's not surprising that many people are looking for ways to get rid of scars.
Well, scars on the face can come from various sources, ranging from inflamed acne, burns, cuts and other physical injuries. Usually these scars occur after skin damage. This damage can involve the epidermis layer (the outermost part of the skin), the dermis layer (middle layer), or even the underlying tissue.
After damage occurs, the body will begin a healing process that involves several stages, including inflammation, scar tissue formation, and skin regeneration. In many cases, the healing process can result in the formation of scar tissue. This scar tissue usually differs from the texture and color of the surrounding skin.
During the healing process, often the skin pigmentation around the wound can also change, resulting in a striking color difference between the wound and healthy skin. Although scars may be difficult to remove completely, you can overcome this problem by carrying out regular treatment.
One way is to apply a mask made from spices , such as ginger. This method was demonstrated by the Instagram account user @vee.mell. By uploading a short video, he uses ginger mixed with lemon juice and essential oil to remove scars. Ginger has anti-inflammatory properties that can help reduce inflammation in scars and relieve redness.
The active substances contained in ginger can help increase blood circulation in the scar area, thereby speeding up the healing and regeneration process of the skin. Reporting from vogue.in, ginger contains antioxidants such as gingerol and zingerone, which help fight cell damage and stimulate collagen production. So that it can indirectly disguise scars.
Meanwhile, lemons are rich in vitamin C, which is known to have a whitening and skin brightening effect. Using lemon juice can help improve uneven skin pigmentation due to scars. The citric acid in lemon has natural exfoliative properties which can help remove dead skin cells, open pores and speed up the regeneration of new skin.
The antiseptic properties of lemon help clean the scar area from bacteria and germs that can hinder the healing process. So how do you use and make it? For those of you who want to try, let's look at the information below as summarized by briliobeauty.net from Instagram @vee.mell, Tuesday (7/5).

Ginger has several properties that can support skin health and prevent premature aging, one of which is anti-inflammatory properties. Ginger's anti-inflammatory properties can help reduce inflammation of the skin, which can occur due to sun exposure, pollution, or certain skin conditions.
Apart from that, it can also reduce inflammation which can help keep skin healthy and prevent signs of premature aging. Ginger can also help improve blood circulation in the skin when used topically or consumed. Increased blood circulation can help supply nutrients to skin cells and remove toxins, which can support skin health and appearance.
