Tip for anyone with dark or elevated scars on your body!
Whether it be from self-harm, surgery, injury, cancer whatever. If you have scars on your body, read this.
There is no way to completely erase bad scars, but there is a way to make them nearly unnoticeable. I just found this out and wanted to share this with you, because for years I thought I was going to be stuck with these scars forever or at least a long time. Apparently not! What you have to do is go see a massage therapist. I don’t mean a massoose or physical therapist or your friend who likes to massage your shoulders. I mean an actual massage therapist. You need one that specializes in cupping (you can find out by visiting the website or asking when you call). The cupping will actually make it look worse at first. It takes a little while but it is certainly faster than cremes and if your like me with a lot of scars, probably cheaper than buying the amount of tubes of cremes too! But don’t do it if you have to show that part of your body that week because it will almost look like a bruise at first or the scar might darken a bit. But once that is gone, the scar will be smooth and white. The lady I saw said they do it for cancer patients a lot with the scars on their necks that make it look red and when it’s finished, the scars are just fine whtish pencil lines. I plan on going back to my massage therapist to get the rest of the ones on my legs done so I will take pictures before and after and let you know how it turns out.
I wasn’t too happy when the lady started asking questions about my scars and self-harm and stuff, especially when everyone told me they don’t say anything. It shocked me a bit. But what really shocked me was when she said she could help them. Sure, most will fade to almost nothing if I give it enough years, but why wait that long! Especially since the raised ones don’t seem to ever get smooth and go away.
