i feel ugly beacause of my scars?

Question

i used to have flawless skin but it became all spotted like someone which had chicken pox (especially my leg area). It was due to an allergic reaction to my washing detergent, i went to see doctors but they didn't help (is okay now since i found the cause of the allergy). Any suggestions to how i can remove my scars? i feel ashamed and always hide my legs with long pants.. and i can't help thinking about my scars when i'm on the bed with my boyfriend..

i feel really really ashamed of my scars as people always point them out to me... even if i explain that it is caused by my allergy they always just jump to their own conclusion that i had mosquitoe bits or something bad.

Answer 1

Aw, babe. Your true beauty is within.

Exfoliate -- there is a product called "pretty feet and hands" that removes dead skin. You can also use equal parts (1 tsp or so) of salt and mayonaise to exfoliate and moisturize.

Moisturize -- olive oil, any vegie oil really, mayo, cocoa butter. Vegie oils go into the skin, rather than sit on top like mineral oils and petroleum jelly.

Time -- your scars will fade as you shed skin.

Believe -- that you are truly beautiful.

*hugs*

Answer 2

You shouldn't be ashamed about anything. Its things like that, that make people unique and for me beautifully. You should love and except the way you are.
If you can learn to love you then no one else matters.
I have a friend who has a scar the length of her stomach which is very deep, from a life saving operation she had as a child. She Will never be able to get rid of it, nor does she want to because she has excepted it and is proud to be different, which is one of the most beautifully things there are in this world.

Wren's right, Mederma does wonders! I had a cousin who's face was full of pimple scars, and it went within six months.

The speed of how it works depends on how old ur scar is.

You can try vitamin e oil and other products specifically made for scarring. Why don't you try to see your scars as part of who you are now, my b/f has to scars that I just adore on his face, one is on his nose and the other is on his chin, I love them. If you're really afraid of what your b/f might be thinking, tell him, maybe he's got something about his body that he's uncomfortable with.

Answer 5

you can try putting neosporin on all of the spots constantly and see if that helps any. it definately should help even if its just a little. and if that doesn't work then you may want to look into scar removal. goodluck! =)

i know what thats like, it's no fun...

You can try Maderma. Its available at any drug store. I and my mom have used it on surgery scars and it does help. It works better on newer scars though.
