This is the strory:
a pimple on my nose got rubbed against and poped. the blood seemed to have spread underneath the skin, causing a scar. Few days later, the top skin layer seemed to peel off leaving an open wound, not to deep. Then the skin healed, leaving a dark coloured scar. Dried up blood has been peeling off as well but left behind a huge, noticeable scar. What can i do about this? and if the skin peels again, what can i do to the peeled skin, that isnt so deep, to prevent future scarring?

Its fresh so give it some time to fade. Use salicylic acid washes to keep the skin sloughing off to a) prevent future breakouts and b) to fade scar marks.

I put alcohol in my toner that i apply every morning and evening. The alcohol kills the germs and prevents future outbreaks.
In case your skin is sensitive and gets dry because of the alscohol content, apply your usual face moisturizer.

ooh, sounds bad, you can get a product called scarzone it works really well, but if worst comes to worst, you may just have to see a dermatologist and see how u can treat it.
