How to get rid of scars qucik and/or explain to parents about scars?

0

I have a scar right on my stomach from my past self-harm experience. I have given up, but my scars won’t fade. It’s been almost 6 months since I received them and they haven’t faded a bit. In 8th grade (I’m in 10th now) my mom found out I was cutting so I stopped for a year, then went right back at it in 9th grade. She found some depressing pictures I drew and asked if I was ok. I’m FINE now, but she refused to believe me but we dropped it. I went to my doctor and she found my scars, and I told a lie saying it was this weird accident. Now my mom found more depressing pictures from like, 7th grade before I cutted and I’m afraid she’ll check me, or send me to a therapist. Help please?
PS I can’t pass the scars off as an accident, I carved a word into my skin (Yeah I know I didn’t know it was gonna scar)

First you must consider if you really are FINE, now. If it is a recurring theme, then you might want to go to your mother instead. However, if you want to get rid of the appearance of scars, then there isn't much you can do. I've read several studies about Vitamin E application and the scar removal creams and stuff, but honestly, the best method is time. Scars will fade eventually, but there is no quick fix for them.
