how to prevent scaring

I got a cut all the way through from the outside of my cheeck to the inside of my mouth. I got stitches on the outside and inside. Whats the best way and stuff to use to prevent any scaring if possible or make it not as bad???
go now to a plastic surgeon and have him re-stitch the bish.

 
a hospital guy that works in ER or trauma isn't a plastic surgeon, they just want the wound closed. A plastic surgeon will do that AND care about how it looks.
well i am guessing its too late to worry bout going to one now its been like 21 hours since it happend

 
Use polysporin, it's better than neosporin if you can get it, until it's healed.. Use Vitamin E after it's healed and wait...

It's all time.. Also let it scab up and do whatever you can do keep the scab.. keeping it moist with polysporin helps.. You want to grow new skin under the scab not just close up the cut surface..

Also since you got stitches depending on how they pulled the skin together it will take a long time for that join to smooth out...

I can't remember the name but apparently the skin cream they sell at 2am with Jessica Simpson works well on scars...

I smashed my face off a metal pole and the cement ground.. The cut I washed every day and didn't give it a chance to keep or form a proper scab is the only cut that left a mark.. It's going away tho..
