My sister was bit by a dog in three places on her face. It looks horrible. Her DR. said it will scar bad so I am just wondering if there is anything to make them less visible.

I recommend rubbing PURE vitamin E oil on the affected areas. When it dries, follow up with a bit of Lavendar Oil. Alternate these every few hours for the first few days, and then after a few days, mix them together, and rub the mixture on 2 or 3 times daily.

Tea tree oil is a natural antiseptic from Australia. I keep a spray bottle of it mixed 1/3 tea tree oil with 2/3 filtered water, and spray it on all cuts and scrapes and bug bites. It works really well and has actually lightened some scars that I have had for years. I hope that you are more careful and are not cutting yourself, except by accident. I hope this helps. Have a nice day!!

Go to the drug store and get Vitamin E tablets with liquid center. Get you horse in and shave a very small area around each of his wounds, wash the area with soap and warm water and pat dry. Then, break the tablets and wipe the liquid onto the wounds. Repeat 3-4 times a week until about a week after they fully heal, continuing to apply it to the scars. Then allow the fur to grow back and all will be well. Also, maybe put something colorful and reflective on you fence so you boy doesnt do that again.

I have found that a little Xango spraed on the cut/scar 3 times a day does wonders.

keep it very clean and bandaged use neosporin or some other type of antibacterial cream regularly...if a scar still forms after all of this there is a product you can buy at any drug store that you can rub on scars to make them go away and it works really well but I can't remember the name at the moment if I can remember the name I will let you know :)

I hope you are not cutting yourself? There are many things that you can try to not have scars. Talk to your doctor - or go to the pharmacy -they will give you great things!!!! I had a horrible scar on my arm - from a car accident -it's almost gone now!!!!!!!!

If you won't be exposing the wounded area to the sun, nothing beats vitamin e. But exposed to sun, it will turn your skin a jaundiced yellow. Cocoa butter helps stretch marks and superficial cuts

Palmers Cocoa Butter will do the trick. But may I ask why you have 'cuts'? That is an ominous word!

Use neosporin on them - they'll heal faster with less scarring. :)
