Hi,

Most of the scrapes heal with home treatment and without any scar. They heal within a week. If the scrape is deeper it takes minimum of 2 weeks to heal. Betnovate-N Cream is used to treat inflamed skin conditions like eczema, psoriasis, dermatitis etc. I advise you to try home remedies like:
- Apply ice cubes which reduces pain and burning of skin after waxing
-Onion extract is the most effective way to reduce waxing scars
- Honey can be applied and left on face for 20 minutes

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
