Self harm scars, how to hide them on vacation?

I'm going on holiday in july, for a week to majorca, but I have all these white scars over my thighs and fore arms. My parents are bound to find out I've been self harming because you cant exactly wear a hoody while swimming!!!

I really dont know what to do. I feel so stupid for doing it. It was about last christmas time, and theyve all left pale scars. Will they fade a little in 2 months? And if I get a tan from the sun, will they be more obvious or will they go away?

Please please please help me. I've managed to hide them so far, but its just not going to work anymore. I can not anyone. At all. I've tried talking to someone about it but it doesnt work. Im not going to professional help, I don't need it. I've stopped, I just need something to hide them with.

Is there anything that can improve them if they won't fade? Like, something cheap, that won't cost much, like household stuff in the kitchen or summit.

Reply asap!!!

Why don't you try to get you some of that self tanning lotion to help? Not sure of anything else... Try Vitamin E oil and/or Pau D'Arco or Aquaphyllic cream (you can find these also in Herb stores)

No one had ever seen my scars until I had to get a blood test last week. I tried to cover them up with self tan, bronzer and concealer, but it made them look so much worse.
Maybe you could wear some boardshorts to cover the ones on your thighs. As for the arms...I really don't know.
Good luck!
