answer:The best way to reduce scarring is to keep an antibiotic ointment on it all the times. You can cover it with a bandaid or gauze and tape. Keeping it most with the ointment reduces the scaring. It won’t scab over. People think it’s best to let it dry, and that will help it scab and heal faster, which it does, but it also is more likely to scar that way. If you are within 24 hours of getting the cut you can probably still reduce the scarring by keeping the ointment on it. If has already been a few days and a scab is forming, you would have to pull the scab off and start all over, which I am not recommending, especially since I have no idea how large or deep your cuts are. Are you white? Very pale skin? The scars are likely to be minimal the lighter your skin is. Stay out of the sun while you heal.
