getting rid of scars HELP


Question Posted Saturday May 12 2007, 9:43 am

Ok well my sister had two stiches on her forward because of a cut and its been two weeks since the stitches have been removed and it still didn't heal yet! What can I do to hlep make it heal?

Please let it go away..it's all my fault she got it and if it never heals then my family will be mad at me for life and we'll always remember it since we can see it on her face everday!

And she always wanted to be a model! Most likely she won't but atleast I wanted her to have hope for it.

It's only been 2 weeks.

Scars don't fade for months and even years.

If it's a big concern, then a dermatologist can help with prescription creams to aid in the healing and fading process. Plus, when the time comes and has past for disappearing to whatever point it will, the dermatologist can erradicate the scar by freezing the area (with a spray) and buff it off with an abrasive sander. They do this because the skin replenishes and repairs itself. They've removed the raised scar area and allowed the skin to repair.

This is done successfully with acne scared faces.

Don't worry about it and in the meantime, go to the pharmacy and ask the pharmacist (or look yourself) for the best scar treatment ointment to use. Vitamin E oil is also very good. There are specials ointments and creams made for stretch marks for women to use during and after pregancy to reduce the appearance.

You could try bio oil on it. It's not that cheap but it's supposed to be great for scars, stretch marks and other blemishes. I have included a couple of links for you to read about it.

use maderma (sp?) scar treatment. It takes a while, but as long as you but it on like 4 times a day it should be gone within a month or two. (CH)
