cut that won't go away!

[chumspam]

my six year old was poked in the nose with a pencil by his awful sister and the resulting mark is still there 3 months later. It's not the end of the world - looks like a little spot - but it's on his nose so very visible. Any suggestions!

Buy vitamin e capsules, stick a pin in one, squeeze out a bit of the goo, wrap the capsule in clingfilm for later. Rub on twice daily. Should take the scar from red to silver in a few weeks. Buy the cheap capsules, they're all the same. Don't buy scar serum, it's the same stuff at ten times the price!

Thanks DrSeuss - will give that a go!

Are you sure there's none of the pencil lead left in preventing healing?
