Last friday I binge-drinked like never before. While I was walking drunk on the street I slipped and smashed my face against a wall. The glasses I was wearing broke and dramatically cut my lateral canthus. The day after, while experiencing a terrible hangover nausea in the ER, a medical doctor sewed five stitches to close the laceration. According to doctors, the eyelid was not seriously involved in the laceration, so I hope I will be able to open fully my injured eye, which now lays in permanent ptosis position.
As regards the future scar, I am getting knowledgeable on the topic to minimize as possible the permanent signs and to find out the surgical methods to solve them. Basically there are two types of scars, the hyperthrophic ones caused by an excess of fibrose tisseue and collagen and the atrophic scars, caused by a lack new tissue generation. Acne scars are included in the atrophic scars, while keloids are among the hyperthrophic ones. There are no topical treatments backed by scientifical evidence for atrophic scars, while hypertrophic ones can be reduced with silicone gel and dermatologists may perform antinfiammtory injections.
I posted this thread to remind everyone that preserving your apprearance has far higher priority than any expensive surgery, then buying any expensive diet supplement or reasearch-chemical: if you drive a car/motorcycle, always be careful behind the wheel, if you face an assault, always aim to escape instead of picking a fight, if you have a girlfriend who manifests a violent behavior leave her.
Preserving your face from disfigurements which would make you not look human is more important than everything else.
(comments mentioning the idea that more scars on a man make him more masculine and hotter will be ignored)
