Should I be ashamed?
Since I was younger I've had a long scar running down the side of my face from an accident. Also I have scars from my more dangerous (let alone unexperienced) skateboarding days.

I'm afraid to show my scars in public, but lately somebody asked me where I got my scar. When I answered they said it looked cool.

This may be a dumb question but what should I do?

get over yourself, it's just a scar.

It's just a scar - no-one thinks anything of it. Get on with life.


techno_color
If your not embarrased then what does it matter? If you want them gone then rub some of theat scar medicine maderma or however you spell it


x_omgitsbri
They're just scars. I think scars are really cool to be honest, they tell stories =). Just leave it, but if you reeeeeally don't like it, try covering it up with some make-up.

EDIT: No, I did not just copy the person above me :P

You have nothing to be ashamed of, but if the scar does become a worry for you then why nor talk to your doctor?
There are treatments available to reduce scars if you want to go down that road, you don't need to put up with it if you don't want to.

just accept it as it is part of you.

Dont worry about it even though it may look bad to you to others then they may see it as not bad and maybe cool or not even notice it. Dont be afraid to show your scars yes some may not like it but its apart of you.

Seriusly don't worry what other people will think. Lots of people have scars. Including me! Some people even find it really cool lol! Just don't make a big deal out of it. There's nothing wrong with them. But if your really that worried about them just make it a lil less obvious by using some foundation. No big deal!

Accept your scars. You needn't be proud or afraid of them. They are part of what makes you who you are.

can't change the past, just be who you are and get on with the future.

Ashamed of what.

Just live your normal life and don't worry about your scars.

The more conscious you are about your scar, the more people will notice. There are things that you can't change. Don't be afraid to show them. They are a part of you. We sometimes forget that being human, we all get scarred in some way.

If you really feel weird about it, use some concealer on it. But I would really suggest just being proud of who you are; scar or no scar!


jo mason
be proud of who you are scars included and give thanks to the person above that you are still on earth walking around be proud of your battle scars and i would not try to cover them up because that is who you are good luck

Hi

There is no need to be ashamed.

Scars can be a good talking point and you can tell stories of your skate boarding days, or you can just say you dont want to discuss it.

If the facial scar really bothers you, cosmetic surgery can resect them and reduce their appearance.

You know what? That scar is a piece of who you are, and you should be proud of who you are. Look at it like, hey, I tried something out that most kids wouldn't do, because they were afraid of getting hurt. Be proud of who you are, and your distinct individuality that makes you who you are. If someone asks, tell them, but move on to something else! It's really not that big of a deal, even if it seems like it is at the time. If you don't want to say anything to them, just say, "I'm not comfortable talking about it." End of discussion. It's pretty hard for someone to keep talking to you about something when you don't respond. You are you, be proud of you!

be proud of it, it's a part of you now:)

Why worry what people think of a scar. I was in an auto accident and have a scar across my throat that looks like someone cut my throat like a fish. If people ask I tell them how you got them. I've never had any problems. They may seem important now but they are really nothing in the big scheme of life.

You sound like it hasn't bothered you too much up to now and this person was just curious I guess. If it makes you feel self concious now you could always use cover make up. I think it says a lot for you to have been strong enough to not let it bother you. You have nothing to worry about sweetie, it makes you who you are.


Bef
Just realise that they are part of what makes you who you are! You might not be the person you are today if you hadn't had the accident. Its a good thing so dont be embarassed!

What can you do? The scar is there. Nobody is perfect. We all have flaws, some physical and some on the inside and often both. Learn to be comfortable in your won body. Be confident and happy and try not to let your scar bother you.

My daughter, when she was 8, had a malignant brain tumor. They were able to remove it surgically, and she went through 7 weeks of radiation. Because of this, she has a huge bald spot on the back of her head, which will never grow hair. When she was in school, kids would call her "baldy". She stood up in her junior high class and explained why she had a bald spot. They quit calling her names. Now, she is a young lady, but yes, she is embarrassed over her bald spot, (she just got married on 11/17), so she wears her hair either in a bun or pony tail to try to cover it up. So, your feelings are normal, but you will just have to accept the scars. Look at the bright side, you are still alive and healthy, and able to experience fun. My daughter is still alive and healthy, and that's the most important thing, more than the physical scars. Oh, my daughter's scar where they did the surgery is very prominent, and this covers the entire back left part of her head. So be greatful for your health. As you get older, people will become more mature, and not ask embarrassing questions. Answer the questions only if you feel comfortable enough to. I know my daughter answers everyone's questions, because the scars are not her fault.
