View allI'm curious about getting rid of some old blade cut marks I've had on my arm for almost 8 years now. What's the best way to treat them, and what kind of cost should I expect?
To remove old blade cut marks on your arm, you can consider undergoing laser therapy. Laser therapy can help reduce the appearance of scars by promoting collagen production and skin regeneration. One commonly used medication for this purpose is Mederma, which is a topical gel containing onion extract. It is recommended to apply Mederma on the scar twice daily for at least 3 months to see visible results. Additionally, silicone gel sheets like ScarAway can also be used to flatten and fade the scars. As for the cost, the price of laser therapy sessions can vary depending on the size and severity of the scars, as well as the number of sessions required.

Just the other day, I noticed I have some ringworm on my thighs too. I'm really frustrated and worried about why these things keep happening. What can I do to stop this once and for all?
