How do I prevent scarring from scrapes on my face?

by
Filed under: scrapes 

Last night I went out with some friends and had a minor incident. One of my friends ran up behind me to hug me, but we both went tumbling down to the pavement. While she didn’t get any injuries, I bit through my lip and scraped the side of my face and part of my nose.

What is the best way to prevent scarring in this area?

Keep it moist until it heals. Constant neosporin + band aid (if possible), even petroleum jelly would be okay. Just don’t let it dry out.
