Abrasion on face
I suffered abrasion or scratch on the face during an accident two weeks ago. Now the scab has scraped off and tender skin has appeared (light pink color). Should I apply any ointment to avoid a scar.

If the scab has already scraped off and there is only light pink color. I would recommend to not do anything as pigmentation will return in a few weeks time. However, if you would like a cream to speed up the return of pigmentation send me a picture on private consult so i may see the lesion and advice properly.
