    How to remove cutting scars?
    So long story short I used to cut myself for about 3-4 months on and off.. And I had to go to therapy and all that stuff . And I'm done going now . And I have stopped cutting for about 1-2 months.. But the problem is I have a lot of scars on only one of my arms and I'm not hiding them from my family because they already know of course but I just moved into a new school and I always wear my loooong sleeves right up to me hands just in case and people are already suspicious and people have already called me out on it.. I want to be normal and be able to show them my arm without them seeing scars.. PLEASE I NEED A WAY TO GET RID OF MY SCARS FROM SELFHARM!

    Its not cheap... but inquire about plastic surgery... specifically dermabrasion.

    Some scars are forever. Those that aren't, can take years to heal, if they do at all. Sadly there is no quick fix for this, it is what it is.

    I would talk to your doctor and see if he has any treatment options available that can speed healing. Other than that, you'll have to wait and hope that they go away. I have a scar from scratching a mosquito bite over 4 years ago. Some scars just don't go away.
