Are Scars Adversely Affected Because Of Exposure To The Sun While Swimming?
Hello, I have a scar on my face on my cheek an inch below my eye, that I received through a traumatic accident, it s been around 5 months now and I ve been using a scar gel called kelo cote. My current question here is am I permitted to go swimming in the sea? Or swimming at all? Can too much sun exposure do any harm?

Are Scars Adversely Affected Because Of Exposure To The Sun While Swimming?
Hi, I am sorry for the car accident you had. Kelo cote will help restore the normal skin without scar. You can go swimming in the sea, but avoid : - exposure to strong sunlight - exposure for too long Should use sunscreen cream with SPF 50+ with highest level of protection. Use round hats to avoid direct sunlight. Hope this helps.
