Had a similar thing. The Drs referred it as wet to dry treatment. Something about the gauze drying pulled in fresh new tissue. Left a bump but no scar. Might be why they do that. Researching, it is. Granted they consider it an outdated procedure.
My wound therapist used a dressing with silver gauze and gel. Which is one alternative. It always depends on the training. Our city docs may not know the new stuff(Nearest PT is 70 miles away).
