    How to get rid of burn marks
    How to get rid of burn marks
    I was about 13 when I first burnt myself because I was clumsy with hot water and hot iron.I am now 18 and have 4 burn marks due to this and was wondering if anyone can give me advice on how to bleach or lighten these marks.. I have tried some products before, they become lighter but have not yet completely gone away.

    Can anyone tell me of a strong bleaching cream and/or soap that I can use to get rid of these marks.

    Something that I can get from a store

    And if so any natural creams or non harmful products without steroids and side effects of stretch marks etc.
    Thanks.

    I don't think you can get riud of burn marks I have so many the skin didn't turn black but errghhh I can't describe the mark but its not that bad after years! Maybe you can injur the burn mark other then getting it burned again and maybe it will grow bak different

    Are you actually suggesting that the OP re-burn or injure the area in hopes that it will "grow back differently"?

    Are you for real?

    To the OP, have you talked to a plastic surgeon? Skin grafts may be your only option if the burn is very bad.
