I quit cutting myself a while ago. how can i hide these cuts or speed up the healing?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Skin healing: Take 500 mg vitamin c daily. Prick open a vitamin e gel cap and smear the liquid on your scars. Wear sunscreen and long pants or sleeves to avoid further discoloration or scarring. So glad to hear you have stopped cutting. Stay well!
