In February, I burned the top of my left hand making Fh's birthday dinner..and there's still a faint scar.
Last week an ember flew off my cigg and landed on my left hand..there was a blister and now it's a little scar.
Last night FH was making paninis in our panini maker and i burned my right arm on the top of it. there's a 1 inch red burn mark on my arm now!
W T F?!!! I've never been this clutzy before! I'm hoping the photog can airbrush them out of pics?! Is there any PROVEN scar reducer I can use that will work in 23 days??!!

Try using Vitamin E... Mederma also works really well.

Re: I got burned
usually those types of scars fade over time - i got burned once with the iron and i cant even find it anymore - chances are nobody will see them during the wedding, if you are that self concious maybe your make up artist can cover it - and i am sure the photog can airbrush them right out if need be! dont worry!

Tea Tree Oil. Works for EVERYTHING! My nephew had a huge burn on his arm, and there is no sign of it now. I was bit by a dog on the face, and used it, and you couldn't see the scar unless I pointed it out to ya! Start using it asap...the sooner the better. HTH Good luck!

That's probably the best thing to do.

PURE vitamin E oil...make sure it's PURE - nothing else added. Available in LITTLE bottles in Rite Aid - you have to look for it though...like i said - little bottle.
put it on as often as you can/want. it's oily - so only put on as much as you can handle, but any time it looks like it's soaked in, PUT IT ON AGAIN.
i had spinal surgery and NO ONE can see the scar.

Re: I got burned
A good makeup artist can cover up tatoos easily, so I don't see why a scar should be too difficult. maybe just give your makeup person some advance notice just in case they need different tools.

Try all those things, but don't worry - photoshop can fix anything!
