Minimizing scars.....

I had a little accident and have ended up with scrapes on my nose and face.  I am worried about these scarring, since this is on my face.  Does anyone know of a product that will help to minimize scars, new and old?  Thanks for all your help!

I wouldn't assume that you scraps will end up as scars, they will probably disappear. Acupuncture commonly removes scar tissue on the skin. The stimulation that acupuncture engenders encourages the body to replace scar tissue with functional tissue. It tends to work quickly.

I use vitamin E -just stick a knife in to open a capsule and squeeze it out and rub it into the area.  It works really well to help skin heal and minimize scaring - but I agree with Justin, I'm sure you won't get scars from scrapes.

Thanks Justin and Ann.  These a deep scrapes and I tend to scar easily.  I will try the Vitamin E after the wounds heal and if that doesn't work,  look into the acupuncture.  Thanks again.
