How do I get rid of this scar and scars in general? My arm and thighs are covered in a few years (5-6) worth of scars, this one is the most noticeable but I’d not have any of them anymore, so how do I get rid of them?
>>33221158 (OP)You're just going to have to live with them. Sexual partners will know you are a bit mentally lel, but old scars with no fresh marks show personal growth.
Getting rid of scars takes time, but you can fade them a lot with the right approach.
Silicone sheets or gel work well for raised scars if used daily for a couple of months. Retinoids or vitamin C can help fade dark marks and smooth out texture. Keep your skin moisturized and always wear sunscreen since sun makes scars darker. Gentle exfoliants like glycolic or lactic acid also help over time.
If you want faster or stronger results, microneedling and laser treatments are great options through a dermatologist. For thick or raised scars, steroid injections can flatten them.
They may never disappear completely, but with consistency, they can become much less noticeable.
>>33221169My boyfriend of the past two years already knows about them and helped me quit, so luckily I don’t have to worry about that part lol
>>33221170I’ll see if I can find any of that stuff the next time I go to the store, thanks man
>>33221158 (OP)wow ppl are being nice, helpful and encouraging in this thread, very rare
>>33221220I know, I honestly thought people would be telling me to relapse rather than give actual advice
>>33221158 (OP)I won't read "self-harm" threads. See a doctor.
If you fast for a while then they'll fade since your body will consume material like scar tissue in place of sustenance
