Asked By:jtheragene

I got into a accident and ended up scraping my hand as you can see. the 2 other little ones seem to be clean cuts and remodeling greatly. but the middle one im concerned about. the middle one seemed to be a clean cut and i only seen a red layer which is probably past the epidermal layer. but i did not see a while layer which is the dermis although i did see a little bit of whiteness but mostly red. it also did not bleed. so will the middle cut leave a scar or will it heal nicely back to normal?
