TLDR Topical iodine can regenerate and control human scar tissue.
The document described a study where the author applied Lugol’s iodine topically to various scars, including a 50-year-old facial scar and three surgical scars, to test its potential for inducing scar regeneration. Over a period of about a year, the author observed that the iodine treatment led to the disappearance of visible and palpable scar tissue. The study suggested that iodine might initiate, control, and complete human scar regeneration, with the process being documented through macroscopic photography. The author concluded that only Lugol’s iodine and plastic wrap were necessary for the regeneration process, while other chemicals could interfere.
