People spend a bundle on hiding or removing old scars, from heavy makeup to laser skin-resurfacing treatments that cost thousands of dollars. They can use topical creams, too, but many products available over the counter don’t do anything to lessen bumpy scars like keloids. Intriguingly, though, a team of Australian scientists has found early evidence that a new skin cream could possibly heal those raised scars. This topical cream is meant to ameliorate the appearance of keloid scars by inhibiting lysyl oxidase, an enzyme important for tissue repair that causes collagen to “cross-link,” giving rise to raised scars. After the trial was over, scientists observed interesting changes happening at the molecular level of participants’ skin.
