Evidence-informed scar care, structured for clinical practice.
Foundations is a structured clinical education pathway developed by the Scintera Scar Care Institute. It provides practical, evidence-informed guidance on scar care across the healing timeline, with resources designed for real clinical use.
What is Foundations?
Foundations is not a blog and not a collection of articles. It is a structured series of clinical modules designed to build confidence through timing, biology, and recognition.
Each module focuses on a specific stage or challenge in scar care and includes clinician-facing resources and patient-facing handouts that can be used immediately in practice.
How the programme is structured
- Each month focuses on a specific stage or challenge in scar care.
- Each module contains clinical guides, quick references, and patient handouts.
- Resources are available online and as printable PDFs.
