How can I get rid of facial scars from an accident?


Question:
I was in a pretty bad motorcycle wreck (off-road) without a helmet a few years back, and now I have different kinds of deep, indented (from rocks and such) and elongated (cut-like from the metal parts of the bike)scars. These are all very noticable when I'm outside in the sun, or under direct over-head light. Any suggestions to getting rid of these? I'm pretty embarrassed of them. I don't want to be a scar-face anymore.

Answers:
It depends upon how much money you want to spend on this. You can see a dermatologist who can suggest treatments that can lessen the scars. You might want to call go for at least a consultation. Scars are not something that can just be "gotten rid" of. Especially if they are deep within the skin.

But they can be made to look better. Don't worry though if you cannot afford it. Scars on the face of a man are not that bad of a thing. It is a rugged look and can be very sexy, actually.

Have you every tried the new OTC medication called Mederma? It's supposed to help reduce or fade scars. Depending on how deep they are, it may not get rid of them completely, however, it would be a good idea to try it. If it doesn't work as effectively as you want, you may need to see a dermatologist. Good luck!

Mederma is supposed to be good. Over the counter, but a little pricey

I would get to the dermatologist or like a holistic doctor and they could point you in the right direction. There might be vitamins you can put on the scars.

vitiamin E works well and aloe
