After a revision of a scar what can i eat for the redness to fade?
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Diet not the issue..: I am not aware of any specific food that will help fade a scar...It can take 6-12 months or more for the redness to fade away. The most important step to take while the scar is still red is sun avoidance: an immature scar will burn easily and, if tanned, may tan permanently. Products like Mederma may hasten the maturation of scars as well.

No food restrictions: No food will make you heal a scar better or worse... Take multivitamins.
