Yearling Filly Wire Cut and Thick Scar

A yearling filly had a bad wire cut on her leg. Possibly too-tight bandaging had created a “bow” of solid flesh about 25cm long. As it was weeks old, I used the red colour to help break it up, the purple to get the circulation going and the Bioptron to help the scarring. It took about 6 weeks of nearly daily sessions, but the bow receded greatly and the solid tissue became soft and malleable as it was reabsorbed into the body. It is not perfect with the thick scar, but the appearance of the leg is greatly improved.
