What are the benefits of Scar Massage?
Scar massage is a recognised component of non-invasive scar management that aims to support healthy tissue healing and improve the mechanical characteristics of scar tissue. Fibrous scar tissue is comprised of collagen fibres that can become disorganised and rigid, potentially leading to reduced flexibility, adhesions, and sensitivity. Regular, controlled massage helps to soften and flatten scar tissue by mobilising collagen fibres and reducing adhesions, which may improve scar pliability, texture and mobility over time. It can also help reduce itchiness and hypersensitivity in healed scars by stimulating circulation and encouraging normal tissue hydration and sensory feedback. Clinical guidance suggests that early and consistent scar massage aids flexibility and reduces the likelihood of long-term stiffness, particularly after surgery or injury, and is widely recommended by healthcare professionals as part of conservative scar management practice.
