What can I do to make my scars less noticeable?

I used to self injure (cut), and I have a lot of scars on my arms. Some of them are kind of thick and not so attractive. I%26#039;ve heard of Mederma to help ease the appearence of scars, but does that work for older scars too? Is there anything else out there that lightens the look of a scar, so it isn%26#039;t as noticeable?|||I show off my scars, and make up cool stories for them, try naming them|||Go to a drug store and there are scar and blemish removers.|||avon makes a praduct that helps with scares look around see who your local rep is i use to do the same thing and had the same prablem then i tryed it never been so happy if you need help finding a rep just e mail me i will help you find your local rep thanks topofthehill4@earthlink.net|||Try concealer.|||THE BEST WAY TO TREAT ACNE IS HOMEOPATHIC TREATMENT (Read Carefully) :-

Take Care.|||Don%26#039;t worry about it...





A woman%26#039;s scars have never in any way affected my attraction for her...





As long as your eyes look into mine with a sincere sparkle of mischief, love, humor, and intelligence...





I wouldn%26#039;t even notice scars on your arms...or if I did...I%26#039;d chalk it up to a childhood %26quot;scrape%26quot; you got into once, or some other unimportant situation that now doesn%26#039;t exist because it%26#039;s in the past...





Besides...it%26#039;s the inner thighs that are the most important...|||I just bought mederma for a scar on my face. The package says that it works on both old and new scars. I%26#039;ve also heard that pure vitamin E works also. good luck!|||You can%26#039;t do a whole lot for old scars, but if you use cocoa butter a lot it will blend it in somewhat. Another good news is as you age and %26quot;grow%26quot; new skins, the scars will become less and less visible.


P.S. I got a friend who used to cut himself, he hasn%26#039;t done it for 7 years and the scars are hardly noticeable.|||Mederma, I think, will work on older scars as well as newer ones. It definitely lessened the scar I have on my nose.|||use neosporin|||id go to a skin specialist and ask..





i played football and got tons of scars.. but they just kinda faded over time..





but some stayed b/c they were big/ deep cuts..|||The best way is to go to a dermatologist and get them professionally fixed. Mederma works ok, but only helps a little bit, not that much. Dermatologists have special creams they can prescribe and treatments and things. I have scars on my knees from 5 years ago, but they look alot better now that I got help from a dermatologist.|||Bronzer and vitamin E|||use mederma and or neosporin and cover up!
