DAMN !!! You need to stop cutting yourself!
You have to face up to the fact that you have a mental fascination with entering your body's skin with sharp objects and then seeing the results! That is not just abnormal, it is harmful! You need to realize that beyond just rationalizing it!
I do not know why your father did not ASK more about your problem! I think your obsession MAY be psychologically related to his indifference and inconsideration, but I do not know that.
I cannot advise you without knowing how mature your own father is about things. What would happen if you just showed him that you are still cutting yourself and told him the problem is not stopping? Would he get irrationally angry and do something rash like locking you in your bedroom? Would he simply get angry and in frustration show his disgust with you? Would he indeed take you for medical (not psychological) evaluation and then decide from that if you need psychological help?
As well, can you answer me this? ARE YOU CAPABLE OF ENDING THIS HARMFUL OBSESSION ON YOUR OWN WITHOUT TELLING YOUR FATHER OR ANYONE ELSE ABOUT IT? To me, this is the best course!
You do not say what you use and how available it is for you to cut yourself. Do you keep Xacto knives around, pocket knives, anything you really do not need to have? That is not the actual solution, because the actual solution is NOT to MISUSE anything to do HARM to yourself even if those implements are around!
You NEED to stop being so introverted!!!!!! I think that is one aspect of your problem. If you have outside interests that are socially fun with other people, doing things, you probably are not going to want to harm yourself, or, if you do still feel inclinations, you need to analyze those inclinations to cut yourself as being harmful and undesireable and to be something in your mind that you do not want to ever bother you again! And pushing those harmful thoughts out of your mind is the key to your improvement.
