If it is a week now, there is nothing much you can do now. Initially if the scratches had road dirt and grit, they could be scrubbed out. Now continue what you are doing. Once the scratches start to dry out, then start massaging with moisturising cream or coconut oil, twice a day. Depending on how deep they are you will start noticing a difference. It will take weeks to months before the scars mature and before you see difference.
