Remember how I was telling you about my Little Mermaid pj's that I ruined? Well after I got all bandaged up from cracking my head open, I got a few stitches. A few weeks later when the doctor took the stitches out, I had a lovely scar on my forehead. I still have my scar. Actually, I have a lot of scars from over the years. Here is something for those of you who get scarred up like me.
Researchers at Johns Hopkins University have developed a healing gel that can re-grow skin and blood vessels. The hydrogel is made up of sugar dextran and it's dissolved in water and polyethlyene glycol. This gel will be really helpful for patients with severe burns because it will help reduce the scarring.
Does it make old scars disappear?
