Nail Scratches on the face! Help!!!!!

So yesterday i had a fight with my sister and she scratched me and now i have a couple of scars on my face and they look so ugly..horrible!i dont want these scars for life. So anyone knows about any home remedy or any sort of cream which will work on these scars? I heard honey, lemon, cocoa butter and olive oil are very good..is it true? if yes, then whats the proper way of applying them? By the way, the wound is fresh so i think i have a good chance of getting rid of them.

Thanks! i am panicking right now!

PS- my skin type is normal but at times it gets very sensitive!

There are a lot of old wives-tales but ultimately, a scratch will heal in its own time, and any remedy will speed this up by a negligible rate, if at all.

And if your skin can get sensitive, applying different products to usual may aggrivate the area and make the scars more pronounced (even though they will not 'get worse').

By the way, they aren't proper scars I assume, which have fibrous tissue which contract in the skin? You mean just deep scratches across your skin right? It'll heal, just wear it out. :smile:

cocoa butter is spose to be gud - or you could scratch up the rest of your face with steel wool to even it up, your choice

Scar creams won't help on a scratch, you need to wait and see if they scar first - but i doubt they will.

I think facial scars are quite sexy on a woman.

Try Onions/or Garlic ; it's excellent for inflamations, and I know it sounds disgusting...Onions/garlic are natural antiseptics
If you don't want smell onions, try to put an ice cube several times a day

Just let the scars heal on their own and then use bio oil on any remaining scarring.

Err not sure, but I've got one on my face from when I was a baby and scratched myself, oops! :tongue:
How can you get rib of bad scratches 9n face
did you try using coco butter, honey, lemon or olive oil. Can you tell me if it worked
Just keep it clean and it should heal. If your sister scratched you deep enough to leave a scar I would be taking legal action, honestly.
