If you're bleeding, how long does it take for a scab to form (or for the blood to harden)? In case you're wondering where, it's the side of my nose.

Also, how can I make a scar form faster (if possible)?

I'd like min, hours, days, whatever. By overnight you mean 10ish hours? And I don't mean for it to completely form. At least for the blood to harden.

it's different for all people...it should scab realtively quickly, in a couple hours tops. make sure not to take any aspirin, as it's a blood thinner and will cause your blood to take longer to clot. apply pressure to the wound and it should scab over within an hour

well first you want to make sure the bleeding is stopped, so apply pressure to the wound for at least 60 seconds. then id just let it be, and a scab should be there in probably a few hours, my guess is around 3? but dont take my word for it.
