Asked By:willsonly in Seattle, WA

I vertically scraped my face in the forehead and now it’s turning dry and white And shiny around it. Scab is not developing. Will it scar and possibly turn into keloid? I have few keloid in my body from major injuries and accidents but not in face. I used neosporin the first 1-2 days and now its day 5 and used vaseline to cover it up. Should i worry about scarring or it is fine and will heal perfectly in time?
