I used Nair on my face for some retarded reason and it burned me and left my face looking like that shadow (like when men's hair is growing back) only it was my skin...so I tried stuff and I guess it kinda brightened my face up but then i shaved the wrong way and it left me bump scars on my face....is there anything that can help? I have Mederma, Acne Free Scar Lotion with Hydroquinone, and Ambi

How long ago did you do that?

And are they really scars or are they like little scabs? If they are scabs (which I think they sound like) try not picking at them and if you can, avoid shaving. I would also recommend using a little vitamin e on the area to help the marks heal. try not to use the hydroquinone until its healed a little bit.

I once burned myself with wax. This was on my upper lip which apparently is very sensitive, cuz everytime I wax it its like I rip off the skin and have horrid "burn marks" on either side. So when that happens, I jsut leave it alone and use vitamin e oil on it for about a week and use some heavy duty concealer if I have to go out.

Hope I helped! Let me knwo what you decide

Like you I too have scars from shaving. I have some facial hair on both sides of my face and chin..

I try to pluck the hairs with a tweezers but sometimes the hairs are so embedded into the skin I have to use a needle to pull the hair from beneath the skin to get them out...

As far as gettting the dark marks to move I'm currently using a Cream made from Snail Extract called Elicina..
It's working slow but I'm definitely seeing some improvement in the scars.. They are fading away..

You can get more info on the cream at www.elicina.biz
