What happens when you stop the scarring process on a wound?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Unclear: It's pretty hard to stop the scarring process unless you die or use some unusual drugs which interfere with the complex body response to wound healing. If you were able to do the latter, well then, the healing is incomplete. Under six weeks the scar is not very strong; less than two and it could open. If you're talking about gel sheets, they don't affect strength, just the top thickness of scar.
