How to Remove Burns & Scars

If you've been left with a scar due to a burn, there are over-the-counter remedies that can help to reduce or even remove that scar. Just remember that removing scars doesn't happen overnight. It can take months or even years for burns and scars to disappear completely.

Instructions

• 1

  Purchase a burn-and-scar removing agent. One popular scar-removing treatment is the scar sheets that Neosporin markets under the name Scar Solution.

• 2

  Unwrap the scar sheet and expose its sticky side. Scar sheets are typically silicone-based, and are meant to heal skin more quickly than would general exposure of the skin to air.

• 3

  Place the scar sheet on your scar so that all of it is covered. If your scar is too big for just one sheet, use more.

• 4

  Leave the scar sheet on your scar for about 3 days. Take it off, then apply a new scar sheet to the scar. Do this for 8 to 10 weeks.
