Dealing with self injury scars?

Asked by Prettyjay28 (65points) February 4th, 2012 from iPhone

This is something that a rarely talk about its been bothering me for a while. When I was 12–15 years old I dealt with self injury and a eating disorder, now 18 I have scars all over my body, and even though most have faded they are still noticeable to me. I’m very insecure to wear bathing suits, and even sometimes I feel self conscious while having sex with my fiancĂ©, who has been there for me ever since I started cutting. He said he does not mind the scars and what’s important to him is me not my body, but I still feel uneasy.

Are there any meds I can use to fade the scares on my stomach, ankles and thighs?
