As you have rightly pointed out, facial scarring / mederma is a very discomfit and painful experience, especially if you have such sensitive skin. However, you should remember that quite often, skin scarring / defacing due to insect bites is imperishable. Hence, while you might not be able to prevent the scar altogether, you might be able to work on some useful tips to lighten them. In addition, if you eat the right foods during your healing period, you could try and prevent the scars from forming. For example, Eating high vitamin C content, you could cure wound much faster than normal and wounds that heal quickly are less likely to leave scars. Try eating foods that are rich in zinc to promote quick healing.
1. Apply lots of aloe vera gel on your scars while they are improving to prevent scarring.
2. Use lemon juice, the best natural bleach, to lighten your scars.
3. You can also use lavender essential oil for the same purpose.
4. Keeping the area of the scar well moisturized also helps the make the scar fade.
If your scars do not lighten with these remedies and the scars are causing you great mental pain, it is recommended that you see a specialist, perhaps a plastic surgeon, to consider surgery as an option for permanent scar removal.
