If you're concerned about scarring, I'd suggest getting "mederma". It used to be a prescription. You can get it at Walgreen's or possibly Wal-Mart. If you do end up with a scar later on, I'd recommend getting a laser consoltation from a board certified Dermotologist. If you want to hide deep red marks on your face temporarily, get "Dermablend" make-up. It will cover ANYTHING, even birthmarks, blackeyes etc...I'm serious! JC Penny's sells it. BE CAREFUL ON YOUR BIKE!!!

Ouch, now that's got to hurt. If I was you I would start applying emu oil on the scrapes, this will help to heal it faster and it will also prevent scaring.
