Lesson 9: Healing and Follow-Up

The appearance of the skin may worsen over the next few days. Redness may deepen, and pigment
changes including darkening or lightening are possible.

Scarring can occur with deeper injuries, delayed care, or improper healing.

Follow up within 24 to 48 hours.

Continue monitoring until the area has resolved or is stable. All communication and progression
should be documented.
