Do not take a bath immediately after scraping.

Scraping will cause sweat holes in the skin to open, and different degrees of scraping will appear. At this time, the barrier function of the skin is weakened. If you take a bath immediately, bacteria and viruses in the water may enter the body through the open pores, increasing the risk of infection. The skin may be in a slightly damaged state after scraping. Taking a bath immediately may cause further irritation to the damaged skin, causing pain or discomfort, and may even affect the recovery of the scraped area.

In order to ensure the effect and health of scraping, it is not advisable to take a bath immediately after scraping. Wait for a suitable time before doing it. If discomfort or abnormal conditions occur after scraping, seek medical advice promptly.
