2Z. Cicatrizing

These are medicines, usually drying, that help cover a raw place with skin in the form of a scar. They are used after Wounds and Ulcers have been cleansed. They consume the fluid that flows to the skin (which is apt to prevent healthy healing) as well as helping to alter the Humor that is already there to become healthy skin.
