Burns and scarring

[toomanyshoes]

When DD was little (18months) she tripped and face planted into a plate DS had left on the ground, she cut her cheek and it was more of a graze but she's almost 5 and I can still see it.

But looking at her you wouldn't know it was there, you can only see it if you know to look for it, if that makes sense? It's definitely faded over the years.

My SIL had major surgery on her elbow which left a HUGE scar on her arm and she swears by bio oil but I've never used it. I think vitamin E is also meant to be good for scars.

My boy loves his scars He's spun many a tale of shark bite etc in his time.

When I was 4 I pulled the vertical grill off the bench onto my leg. My leg was burnt severely and I spent some time in hospital. Mum said she put aloe on it every day (when she was allowed to). Today I can still see it, but those who don't know about the accident wouldn't ever know it was there - and it was a biggie - covers the entire back of my calf.
