Balmonds Rosehip Scar Oil 50ml / 1.69fl oz

Rosehips are packed full of nutrients such as Vitamins A and C, and the essential fatty acids Omega-3 and Omega-6; they work to support the natural cycle of skin cell renewal by feeding the epidermis with the vital nutrients it needs to regenerate damaged or fragile areas. Used over time the oil can improve the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, blemishes and scars. It makes a perfect emollient oil to condition, smooth and soften rough, dry or fragile skin, leaving it supple and healthy.

Dispense a few drops into freshly washed, clean hands and massage gently onto the skin. Apply as often as you want, but we’d recommend twice a day. Don’t apply to exposed skin immediately before going into bright sunshine as the oil doesn’t contain an SPF and may increase the risk of sunburn.

For scars and skin in the process of healing, we advise applying morning and night for at least six weeks once the skin has healed over. You can use the Rosehip Scar Oil to massage healing scar tissue, for perineal massage, or for stretch mark massage.

Improvement of scars, hyperpigmentation, and stretch marks will depend on several things, such as where on the body the damage is, how long it's been there, how deep the damage goes, difference in tone from surrounding skin, and your age, health, and wellbeing.

While a wound or operation scar is healing over (which can take up to a week), you can use Skin Salvation balm to keep the surrounding skin soft, moisturised and supple, to prevent tightness. Be very careful to wash your hands before and after applying moisturiser, and keep any broken skin meticulously clean to reduce the risk of infection.
