Asked By:bhavisha

I have had ingrown hairs on my legs for the last 3 years. This has caused me to (stupidly) pick them and scratch them. This has left horrible scars on my legs. it hasnt gone and its been 2 years. i keep picking them. i need to get rid of them! ive tried Bio oil and it hasnt worked. some of the marks are red, others are black. some are small others are bigger. what do i do to get rid of them? How long will it take? How do i avoid getting more ingrown hairs. i am now exfoliating and not picking.
