Sunscreen vs. scar: the Split-Wound test for better healing

NCT ID NCT05074238

Summary

This study is testing whether using sunscreen on a healing surgical scar makes it look better. For each patient, doctors will put zinc sunscreen on one half of the scar and leave the other half untreated. After three months, they will compare both sides to see if the sunscreen helped reduce redness or darkening of the scar.
