Hiruscar® Kids, one of Malaysia’s first topical scar gel formulated for children, was recently
launched together with its ‘Play More’ campaign. This campaign is aimed at encouraging children to go outdoors and play more while equipping both parents and children with important safety tips to promote safe play. The Play More campaign featured the Hiruscar® Kids Play Safe, Play More
Mom Bloggers Forum and the Hiruscar® Kids Play Safe, Play More Holiday Workshop. I was there with my son, the event held at Explorer Outfitter, Publika.

A 2012 study involving 50 children aged between two to ten yeards old saw improvements on scars and dark marks of participants with Hiruscar® Kids. Senior Product Manager of Hiruscar, Desryne Heng said, “The study shows 98% of children aged between two to ten years old experienced an
improvement on various scars and dark marks caused by a fall, burn or insects bite within two weeks of usage and saw lighter, smoother, softer skin on the affected area.” She added that Hiruscar® Kids is a gel that has been clinically proven to be gentle yet effective, safe and non-allergenic. “It is nongreasy and has a fast absorption rate, ideal for parents of young children who worry that their children will ingest external creams. This gel also has a pleasant smell that children find
agreeable.”

Ning Baizura, local celebrity and mother to almost two-year-old Ryan Sky Dalton, was present to facilitate the mom bloggers’forum. She said: “Boys are naturally more active and rough,
and I worry all the time that my son would get hurt. With precaution, I can reduce the risk of injuries but I can never take it away 100%. I think it’s important for us as parents to find a balance of being cautious with allowing our kids to have fun and run around.”

The forum for the mom bloggers allowed the mothers to share some of the issues they faced in balancing a need to incorporate more play-time into their children’s daily activities and safety considerations. Another topic of discussion was the positive effect that playtime had on their children.

The "Play More" Workshop that children enjoy on the day though it was rainy day. It never stop them from having the play more workshop together. 

The children were treated to games that they could play with their mothers

and a fun storytelling session with an adapted version of “Little

Red Riding Hood” and the challenges she faces by professional actor and storyteller Marina Tan,

Thank you Hiruscar Kids, this gel is suitable for my son to use. I helped my toddler to apply this gel too, as he is so active, he is having black marks here and there. It is non greasy and has a fast absorption, ideal for parents with young children who worry that their children will ingest external creams.

Hiruscar Kids -kids scar care

above my son's hand injury from class.

Children often receive scars from playing sports. Whether it's a cleat to the knee in youth soccer, a face mask bump in peewee level football or a cut finger on an ice skate, children pick up cuts and scrapes quite easily while playing sports. Sometimes not related to sports children can get hurt by themselves.

Playing outdoors is also a fun way to work out. We used to only hear about obesity in children as a Western problem, but now Malaysia has one of the highest rates of obesity in Asia. I think it’s really important to start teaching our children how to be healthy at a young age. Obviously we don’t need to be putting our children on treadmills, but I think that encouraging them to play outside on their bicycles and run around is a good start to staying active and healthy. I really try and encourage my child to play outside as much as our schedules permit.

I would really like my child to eventually take up sports. Playing simple playground games is a good way to build on their ability to play sports later at school. I think children who don’t enjoy sports may not do so because they didn’t learn some of the basic motor skills necessary to pick up sports easily. So I think to help children develop that foundation, we need to encourage them to play at a young age. Even if it’s just playing with a skipping rope or crawling through a jungle gym.

Bonding time with my son is important so if I have time, I bring him for animation or his favourite movies. I also let him build confidence, because he's shy but he has interest to join contest such as Halloween costume contest or Fancy Dress Contest.

My son has a chin cut before the nose cut, after the chin's cut heal then nose cut happened.

Sometimes, these injuries may result in permanent scars so it is important for parents to try and reduce the size and visibility of scars on their children.

Most skin injuries can cause scars and keloids. In response to the damage, the body attempts to repair the wound but in the healing process, scar formulation can occur. Typically, scars lack hair follicies and sweat glands, are less elastic than original skin and tend to be lighter in color.

There are several types of scars, common ones include Hypertrophic/Raised Scars, Keloids (raised scars that tend to extend beyond original wound boundaries) and Hypotrophic/Depressed Scars.
