Neosporin/Bacitracin/etc.
Newbies,
Before trying this, beware if you are allergic to any antibiotics, check with your doctor if you any doubt.
That being said:
I have found that Neosporin ointment, or Bacitracin, or any of the generic equivalents are pretty miraculous treatments for shaving cuts.
Without treatment, my cuts are highly visible for at least 4 days. And, they almost always leave a scar that is visible.
Recently I was reworking an old razor and did a shave test and OUCH!! got a nasty cut on my jawline. Didn't stop bleeding for at least 15 minutes. Forget styptic pencils, I used direct pressure with a large piece of gauze.
I applied the "Walgreen" version of Neosporin ointment, with the petrolatum base, real thick, and put a large knee bandage over it. This occurred in the evening.
The next day, the cut had closed up and was barely visible. Two days later it was no longer visible.
It is now completely healed (2 weeks later) and NO SCAR.
I highly recommend this stuff, it is extremely effective.
