I have posted before but can’t find my original thread. 9 weeks ago my cat accidentally cut my face when I was trying to give him his flea treatment.
It seemed to heal OK, my DH is a nurse and put steri strips on it, cleaned it etc but after 9 weeks I thought the scar would be less red and less raised. It looks awful. I do lots of presentations at work and can see people staring at my face rather than the screen.
Im so worried it will never get better. I have been using silicone scar strips which I’ve been told are amazing. I’ve been wearing them for the past 4 weeks but the scar is the same.
It’s really getting me down. I tried to make an appointment with a dermatologist and plastic surgeon but both said they wouldn’t see me until a year after the cut! As it takes time for the scar to heal. This should have reassured me but I can’t stop obsessing about it.
