Question:

I got burnt with a cigarette two weeks before my wedding. NEED HELP HEALING FAST?

I was out for my bachelorette party on Saturday night. I was in a busy night club and someone ran their cigarette into my face. This is located right above my eyebrow. I’m very worried that it won't heal in time for the wedding on July 14th or be able to be hidden by makeup. plus should i cover it or leave it open. The blister popped Sunday morning. Please give this sad little bride some hope.


Answers:

Keep it clean. Some say covering it reduces scarring. I haven't had any indication this is so. I personally find that leaving a wound uncovered helps it to heal faster.
When a good scab has formed, start putting vitamin E oil on it every day. Be careful not to knock the scab off. That could lead to more scarring than you might like. Keep using the vitamin E oil for several days after the scabs falls off naturally.
It's going to be red for a while no matter what you do. But there are cover sticks out there that cover red marks really well. I use a Maybelline cover stick.
