When will my self harm scars heal?
I have several self harm scars on my arms, I did them with a broken razor blade (I got the blades out of the plastic thingy) and I did the last one two months ago. They are bright pink and raised, and they haven't been getting paler or flatter for the past month. I use an exfoliating scrub on them, and after I apply cream or lavender. Will they ever become white?

Put only mederma scar cream on them for about 2 weeks and they will dissapear and you won't even be able to tell where they ever where

Mine took a while to heal. Eventually after 2-3 months they started becoming flat and white. Just keep them clean. This is over used and doesn't help for **** but please before you cut again stop and think about it. Call someone to vent if you have to. If someone sees them and goes to a counselor or something they have a legal responsibility to call the police and have you hospitalized believe me I know this from experience.

Hit the Ulta Cosmetics or drug stores.
Ulta has a special makeup for scar coverage... such as people with permanent black eye from having been hit, scars, burn scars and so forth... this will help you in the short term.
There are scar healing creams out there.
A lot depends on how deep you went and how badly the skin was shredded. It may come down to getting cosmetic surgery to remove the scar tissue.
