Q: Preventing And Treating Potential Scars

asked by: msminnamouse on September 9th, 2006

Experienced User

I have some puncture wounds that I really (of course) don't want to scar. Long story short, the wax I used reacted badly w/ my skin and etc, etc.

I know to use hydroperoxide when they're fresh wounds. And triple antibiotic, aloe and vitamen e.

Is there anything else? Should I add some hydrocortizone and salycidic acid? At what stages?

Any prescriptions?
