It is never too late to massage scar tissue, as it can be improved years or even decades later. While starting 2–3 weeks post-surgery provides the best results, consistent massage can still reduce discomfort, increase mobility, and improve the appearance of mature or old scar tissue.
Manual scar tissue breakdown is best for postsurgical scars and keloid scars because it helps break down the collagen buildup that is what actually makes the scar thicken.
Manual breakdown can be used on individuals with eczema, psoriasis, rosacea, or severely sensitive skin. No anesthetic or numbing creams are needed in the treatment.
