If you have a scar from your youth, how did it happen?

I have a scar on the left side of my face from an i dea that i had when i was 8. I wanted to know how blind people ride their bike, so i got on my bike and began to ride it. FYI i live in upstate New York with a lot of pine trees. Long story short, i ended up cutting my face on a pine tree, right along my ear, missing my juglar vein by 1/4 of an inch. So i had to get 21 stiches, 3 on the inside of my face, and 18 outside. So i have a nice 4 inch scar that follows the curve of my ear.

it depends on someone's personality but usually it takes time. Its like the real wound, when youre healthy it heals fast but when youre weak it will take forever.Sometimes we mistake the feeling as if your not going to get over but all the while just minding the scars as something that is still fresh cause it still hurt once in a while.Healing takes time but forgetting takes forever.

It takes about 2 yrs for scars to mature and become soft and pliable.  You can use mederma or kelocote to speed up the process.   There are also a lot of over the counter stuff you can get for scars.  In my experience Scarguard Scar Care yielded the best results on a scar I got from cutting my hand.

It may be scar tissue that has formed there. I would demand that the doctor due an ultrasound or whatever it took to figure this out.You are your best advocate.

Sorry, old wives' tale, the only way to get rid of the scar would be plastic surgery.  For the meantime, try makeup LOL:)

Q&A With Joaquin\nDetails, November 1995\nBy Joe Dolce\n\nSomebody once said that what's interesting in beauty are the flaws. Tell me about the scar on your lip.\n\nWhen my mom was pregnant with me she was in a hammock on the beach and she got these intense pains, and she felt as if some force, God or whatever, had caused this. Then I'm born. A few weeks later she takes me to the doctor, he sees me and says, "Who did this harelip operation? That's the best operation I've ever seen." Mom said, "No one. He wasn't born with a harelip." I was just born with the scar.

Try using something called "Mederma". It's scar cream and it's amazing! I had a few cuts that were in a prominent place and I used it and they're gone. No trace at all.

Yes, it is possible. Perhaps there is some rust working its way out of the old injury. My friends head went through the windshield of a car about 32 years ago and he still gets an occasional piece of glass out from under the skin. \n\nUse one of those bunion or corn pads with the circle around the scar for the next few days so there is no pressure on it. Should help.

Contrary to popular belief, the scars were caused by a disease called Lupus which Seal suffered from when he was a child. The particular strain from which Seal suffers causes blistering especially around the facial area, which when ruptured cause deep scarring. They not the result of ritual scarification, being bitten on the face by a wolf, getting punched while wearing glasses, or being involved in a motorcycle accident (And they are some of the less bizarre reasons proffered!) \n\nFor more information regarding Lupus, visit lupus.org.

if you mean the scar that leaves the ugly mark and then it hurts, then i think it is possible that the wound is not yet totally healed. however, if it is from a surgery or a suture, and then it hurts, regardless of how long the mark has been then, i suppose you should see a doctor. it might be sign of some infection or something.

That sounds like it.  I've seen the scar and that is what it looks like.

quite variable, depends on how big and where the scars are and how they respond to the treatment, just talk to a dermatologist before you start the treatment, good luck

I have had one removed.  They will shoot you up with local anesthesia, it doesn't hurt a bit.  Maybe a bit of pressure/pulling sensation, but no pain.  Use Neosporin scar solution or vitamin E oil afterward to prevent scarring.  Good luck!

No - but there is an awesome product called "Scar Gel" on the market.  Try that, it worked wonders for my scar.

Why on earth have u been branded?  And most likely yes.  If you dont want it to scar, I would suggest Aloe, vitamine E, and after it heals shea butter, and cocoa butter.  What happened?

severe heat or strong acid/base will burn them right off.  Anything that leaves a scar will alter them.
