1 year since i rekted my hand, how the scars turned?

so 365 days ago being stupid and careless while messing with a food processor cost me in 7 stiches, tendons ruptures, nerves damage and 3 months of PT
in that year i was so obsessed with getting my ROM back in my index (and somehow i 99% did, which is kinda rare for this big of an injury) but i forgot about the scars and didnt pay alot of attention to them
i did used silicone sheets for a few months but i dont think i massaged it enough and hard enough (they also told me i should massage it only like 4 weeks post injury which didnt help)

now its kinda cold so the scars are a bit more noticeable and its kinda sucks. im curious to know if for that kind of an injury the scars got good or bad, i know alot of my family members are complaining about getting big scars always so i may have chit tier genetics


do you think women care about scars like this? tempted to try and laser the side scars of the middle finger

Look like they're healing pretty well and they'll continue to fade. Even now people will hardly notice if you don't bring it up, it's mostly all in your head. They won't get you laid, let go of that dream.

It looks fine. Idk why you would think there is something wrong with those scars. I can barely notice them. I have scars all over from things like welding and lacerations and from surgeries. Idk why scars would bother a guy unless your whole face got fuked up from a fire or something. You're lucky you still have your fingers.

Edit: the only problem with large scars I have heard is that the scar tissue is easier to break open and harder to heal if it does. I'm not a doctor thats just what a doctor said about my knee scar when I was having a second surgery in the same place.

Looks good bro, it’ll continue to fade too. They make a silicone gel that dries and acts like a sheet if you’re worried, it’s easier to use than the sheets.

I had/have a large scar across my chest from an accident so I can sympathise with being self conscious, took about 8 years to fade to a point where it’s not noticeable.

Looks fine. Also strong username to post content ratio.

looks fine. I have two smaller but similar ones. One was from a chain snapping around a pole and cutting my finger, other was me being stupid with a router and cutting a chunk out of another finger tip. Both scars look similar to yours. The finger tip one took like 3 years to stop tingling though.

They don't look like something to worry about, I'd be surprised if anyone even notices if you don't draw attention to it.

How insecure are you? You got a scar on a couple of your fingers and you're worried about how girls are gonna perceive it.

Its not even that bad . I've had worse and thought little of it .

My hands have scars on them including my face .


I dont mind
