In a pinch, I use cover-up, although it's not great if you go places with strong lighting. I use cocoa butter to make the big scars go away. It takes a while, but it works. I also buy elbow-length gloves. They suit my style, and they're good for covering the scars on my wrists.

I have had luck with mederma. It's not that cheap, like 14 bucks for a small tube, but it works.
