Scar tissue looks different than normal tissue. There is no medicine or chemical that I know of that will change it back to it's normal state. Using make-up or wearing clothing that covers the area may help.

I'd really like to encourage you to talk to someone about the cutting. That's serious. Try a guidance counselor or therapist. If you aren't ready to talk to someone in person, then try an anonymous online option like crisischat.org.

You can try long sleeves or makeup, but really the best way to get rid of them is not to make new ones. Time (as in years) also reduces the appearance of scarring. You can try things like vitamin e oil, etc. There are other medical creams that can reduce the appearance over quite a long time of use, but they'll never go away. When they are are fresh, Neosporin helps. But don't recut old scars to make them fresh. That won't work.

If u hide them then thats bad. There is nothing that can hide them. :( You really need help, not mentally but depression wise, why have you cut yourself. that's a problem that needs to be fixed! let out that pain that you have with other things.
etc.
Dancing,music,biking,any type of excercise,talking,socializing,swimming,helping others,doing any other thing besides cutting. ;( thats sad, I hope you stop soon or right now.

ive self harmed before and I the scars are a pain. scars often fade over time, but it depends on what you used as to how obvious the scars are. I'd advise getting something like Bio Oil, which you could pick up in a supermarket or a chemist or something. I used it and although you can still see the scars, they are barely there, and I can probably only notice them because I know they are there. Id stop selfharming if you can help it, although I can hardly talk but just try and talk to someone. I know it may be hard to talk to people about it because you may not want it to get out, you may not want to get judged because of it or because you dont feel comftable talking about it, but believe me itll help :) I didnt tell anyone because the only person I felt I could tell and that I trusted enough to tell was the person making me do it in the first place :/ just try not to do it again and find some other way to release your pain
