What is a scar?
A scar is formed after the body recovers from any injury and it results in an irregular composition of fibrous tissue on the area of injury. It is a healing mechanism of our body where the skin formation is not random basket weave formation of collagen fibers but after the injury the collagen fibers get cross-linked to grow in a single direction resulting in the formation of a profound scar.
Types of scar:
S.NO. | TYPE | CAUSE |

2. | Burn scars | Result of burn injury |
3. | Surgery scars | Result of surgical process on the body |
4. | Accident scars | Result of healing of accident injuries |
5. | Keloid scars | Outside profound growth on the skin which may not stop growing over time |
Scar repairex review:
The product is not a cream based product which does not leave the skin of the user greasy long after application of the product. The product dries very soon and the user may wear the clothes over the applied area. Other similar products claim to be gel based but does not show quick drying properties and the user feel greasy even after 10 hours of application.
Price: The manufacturers have kept the price over $60 which seems reasonable with the quality and effectiveness of the product.
