Best Way To Make A Scar Less Noticeable/Visible?

A few weeks ago, I got scratched by a cat on my arm and the scar is still rather red and noticeable. Is there any way that I could make it less visible?

    hello lovely~ yes, there are several oils which will diminish the appearance of scars.

    i use facial oil as a moisturiser, and the best one ive ever, ever used is this rose oil (its scentless, so noone will doubt your inherent manliness).

    there are numerous brands, but this one has the highest % of whateveritis, and its not wildly expensive~ http://www.amazon.co.uk/Rio-Trading-Amazon-Rose-Mo... you can probably find it in bigger organic food shops which sell toiletries. its about €10.

    after months of using nothing, i just started using this again a couple of weeks ago, and noticed a difference immediately, no spots either (i know, i sound like im being paid, ha ha). the reviews online reccomend it for scar treatment.

    btw, Bio Oil is mainly mineral oil~ a by product of the manufacture of petroleum, with a few natural oils thrown in. get the natural oils yourself, and cut out the oil industry.

    you can also take a couple of drops of vitamin e oil internally (on your tongue or drops in water), as it also prmotes skin healing. you can put it directly onto your skin (though i def think the rosa musqueta oil is way better), but since your skin grows from the inside out, it makes sense to tackle it from both directions.

    this is the best ive found, again its about €10~ http://www.solgar.co.uk/SolgarProducts/Liquid-Vita...

    ive tried using different brands of both rose and vit e oil, but these are the best i found.

    despite little sleep and not taking care of myself recently, i look freakishly healthy thanks to these two in the past couple of weeks : ) hope your arm heals. take care : )

    Time to get a cover-up tattoo. I recommend something meta like a tattoo of the cat or a cat claw to cover the scar.

    The best way is to wear long sleeves, if you don't like that idea then use makeup to hide it.

    Hope that helps
