Over the past few months I've been noticing an increase in scars...
I've always scarred easily but it was usually just on my legs. I scar from every little thing - bug bites, and any kind of scrape. It sucks, but I'm use to my legs looking like it was hit by shrapnel. I know it will fade in time.
But the thing is, lately I've been getting scars on my face and my hands too. Every pimple I get lingers into a scar...I don't get pimples that often so I'm not horribly concerned - but its my face! Not only that but I have to use an oven mitt to play with my kitten or the little tiny scratches it makes turn into scars! Its ridiculous.
My skin isn't dry, or anything like that. This doesn't make sense. I've searched google, ask.com, and wikipedia but to no avail. Nothing would explain why I scar so easily.
Anyone know something I don't?

ME TOO! I am 18 and have been dealing w the leg scars since forever (word for word, exactly like you said) and the pimple scars for about 3 years. Furthurmore, although I am not Red-haired-white-skinned, I am about as fair as you can get while still being a brunette, so the scars really stand out.
I even went to a dermatologist to ask about it and all she could tell me was that I should use Mederma on the scars. I just wanted to say (and pretty much did say) that's really cute, but scarring from an ant bite is NOT NORMAL! Is there no way to prevent this? She told me no. I personally don't think she's right. I suspect that there is some disorder or dietary problem that is simply uncommon.
For the pimple scars, I suggest going to your local Walgreens and getting Acne Free. It's about $20 and it a three step system like Proactive. I was amazed that not only did it do a great job of getting rid of my newer pimples, but it almost completely erased the scarring on my face! I hope this helped!
Someone come help us! Tell us what is wrong with us!
