If it is a first-degree burn or a shallow second-degree burn, as long as it does not become infected, serious care generally does not leave scars.

The choice of specific treatment methods for scald scars should be made according to the actual situation. If exfoliation of the epidermis or vesicular skin occurs, care should be taken to protect the wound from infection. The scalded blisters are more sensitive and painful. At this time, the patient should pay attention to protect the basal wounds and not expose them for a long time. Protection to avoid infections to relieve pain and prevent wound infections can reduce scar formation.
