Things You'll Need:
Garlic clove
Paring knife
Sterile wet washcloth
How to Make a Cut not Scar
1
Clean site of cut with sterile cloth and rinse under cool water.
2
Cut clove of garlic in manageable pieces. Squeeze piece of garlic over cut until garlic juice completely saturates the wound. This will sting.
3
Wipe the saturated cut after 1 minute with a wet, sterile cloth. Do bandage until the cut is completely dry. Healing will occur quickly.
