How would you know that the wound you have will leave a scar? As of the moment im kind off panicking since i got scratched by my nose pretty bad and bled, the scratch i would say is not that deep but not light either. How would you read or atleast look at a healing wound to know if it would scar or not?
If the wound will possibly scar, do you have any product recommendation?

Alot of factors come into play for scarring. The severity of the injury along with how damaged the skin is come into play. A superficial (very light or shallow) scratch may not produce a scar, but a rough abrasion were the skin tore alot may.
How well you take care of the injury also plays a part. Keeping it clean and free from infection will reduce you’re likely hood of a scar.
Finally age comes into play. Scars tend to fade over time so if you are younger your scar may fade to the point it’s hardly noticeable.
However if a scar does form and it bothers you alot you can see a dermatologist about ways to reduce it’d appearance.
Please realize that for most small scars most people you meet day to day will not notice them unless you point them out.
