When will it not do any damage to pull a scab off?
Scabs fall off naturally when fully healed but you can pull a scab off whenever the injury is healed enough not to cause serious damage from removal.

Only with time. It will fall off. If you pick it off, it will bleed, and then it will take longer to heal.

You pierced your lip and took it out Now theres a scab How do you make the scab heal fast?
Uh, I didn't, and there isn't, but I assume you're talking about yourself. There's nothing you can do to make a scab heal more quickly. Hopefully it isn't infected (and if it is, antibiotics are the answer). Do NOT put anything on it. No harsh stuff like peroxide and no ointments like Neosporin. We all know picking at scabs just causes a new scab to form (and scarring), and letting them get blasted off in the shower or otherwise get wet and fall off does the same thing. Just leave it alone, like any other scab, and let it do its thing.
Get rid of a scab fast?
There's really nothing you can do about that. The scab will fall off when the skin underneath has healed, which it will do at its own rate that can't be hurried. If you pluck the scab prematurely you will be left with a new sore, which tends to make the final scar bigger and more visible than if you left the first scab alone.
How do you treat rubbing alcohol burns on the skin?
Neosporine ointment or neosporine cream. The skin will scab and fall off like a wound would.
Why does your tattoo have blisters on it?
The tattoo is a wound with a scab. This blister you speak of is a layer of the scab and should not be picked off or brushed off or messed with in general. It's all part of the healing process. If it's bothering you, itching excessively, or flaking off too soon, apply some dye-free and fragrance-free lotion to it. Don't go overboard with the lotion, though--if the tattoo gets too soggy, the scab can disintegrate and fall off, taking ink with it.
What happens if you dont keep your tattoo lubricated?
They can scab over and once the scab falls off, the ink may fade where the scab has been.
How do skin injuries repair?
One way skin injuries heal is by blocking an opening with platelets from the blood. When you get cut, a bunch of platelets rush to the area and start forming a clot with fibrin. This is what a scab is. Also the scab is just a quick fix the real repairs begin after the scab is formed and the repairs occur under the scab.when the repairs are completed the scab starts to fall off.
How does the body react to a cut?
