Aloe vera if healing: Try aloe vera or mederma. There are also over-the-counter treatments made of silicon you put over it that would work on a scar to hydrate it overnight. Probably unnecessary to mention, please don't use Nair on your face again. Vaniqua is a better option made for that. There is also laser hair removal and electrolysis.
