is it possible to "shave off" scars and moles?
When i started with the straight a few months ago, I was often getting nicks (and blood) on a scar on my chin and some moles on my cheeks. Now, I hardly ever bleed anymore, and I swear it seems that that scar isn't nearly as raised up as it used to be!:shrug:
I'm sure that my (slowly) improving technique and honing have something to do with not drawing blood as often, but can it actually be that I gradually shaved away my scar?? can this be a new cheaper alternative to plastic surgery?!?:rolleyes:
seriously, anyone else had experience like this?
Reducing the size of scars
I have a scare on my shoulder that protruded out about 1/4 inch from an old motorcycle accident. I used to work in the ER were a doctor once told me that taping it down with scotch tape will reduce the size of the scar. I think he said it had something to do with a steroid reaction to the adhesive. It did work, and made my scare shrink in just a couple of days, but maybe it was just a fluke as well.
Ohh well just thought I'd throw that out there since we were talking about scars.
