You unfortunately cannot get rid of them. You can, however, cover them up with concealer. They will fade over time. You can also go to your dermatologist for a scar-healing ointment.

you can't necessarily get rid of scars, but try aloe gel. I heard lemon juice works to bleach them, but covering them up with makeup is an option, too.

It's hard to get rid of self-harm scars, But hiding them can be easier. You can wear clothing that covers them, or if they are on your arms, wear bracelets/a bandana? As far as getting rid of them, There are several scar treatment gels and creams that may help reduce the appearance of scars. Bio-Oil, Mederma, petroleum jelly, Selevax, Dermefface FX7, Revitol Scar Cream, Kelo-Cote Scar Gel. Home Remedies include extra virgin olive oil, lemon juice, aloe vera, vitamin E oil, apply daily to scars to lighten/heal faster. Other options are getting a tattoo to cover the scar or my personal favorite, accepting them as a time in your life that you struggled, although you might want to avoid talking about them or showing them. They are a sign of personal growth and strength, don't let anyone tell you otherwise :)

There really isn't a way to actually get rid of the. Some scars will fade after some time goes by but in general they're going to stick around. If you feel uncomfortable with them then you can try putting a little bit of concealer over them, but they're really nothing to be ashamed of. They're a part of you, but they don't define you.

You can buy creams that help fading scars :) Also, talking to a dermetologist about skincare and scar fading can be beneficial.

I've struggled with getting rid of self harm scars myself. I don't think they ever will go away, or not for a long time at least. But they remind me of what I've been through and that I'm still standing and that is something to be proud about.

Self harm scars can be a contant reminded of the things you've faced. Sometimes people like to see them to see what they've achieved and how far they've came other people would rather not be reminded. To get rid of them you could use Bio-oil I have fount this useful but to cover up my most recent I'm having a tattoo to cover them so when I see where they used to be I'd be faced with art not a reminder of my struggles.

apply body lotion on them daily. Twice a day. Hopefully it will help. You can try normal body moisturiser too.
