With a scar in the sun? Dermatologist warns: “Pay attention to thickening, because they are permanent”

Those who recently contracted a wound or underwent surgery will better fit in with sunbathing in the coming days. Scars are extra vulnerable to harmful UV rays. “That increased sensitivity takes six to twelve months,” says dermatologist Reinhart Speeckaert (UZ Gent). He explains what you do and better do: “I recommend solar creams in spray form”.
