## Resource

Happy Friday Beauty Byters! In this week’s Five Minute Friday, I am talking about scars and the ways to smoothen and soften their appearance. Laser resurfacing and microdermabrasion are the most effective in treating scars, as well as using resurfacing scrubs and peel pads. For over-the-counter treatments you want to use silicon-based scar gels, along with vitamin E oil and coconut oil. Want to find out how textured scars form, and what procedures plastic surgeons perform that greatly improve their appearance. then tune in to today's podcast! If you have a question or something you’d like covered on the podcast, send me a DM or email info@beautybydrkay.com and I’d be happy to respond!
