[Trigger warning] Dog bit face, on accutane. Prevent scarring?

Beauty Tips For Body Care
My brothers dog bit me on the face tonight, merry Christmas am I right??? I’m not posting this in r/dogs or r/reactivedogs for a reason, I’m well aware of what should probably happen with the dog but unfortunately it’s not mine and I don’t live with my brother/parents. He’s always been fine with me and I’m pretty shaken up and scared right now, the best I think I can do is leave in the morning and not deal with any dogs for quite a while. I’ll be seeing my derm ASAP and right now I don’t frankly care what gets reported to the authorities. I’m not looking for anyone to tell me the dog should be put down because I’m well aware. I’m just trying to keep my face from being scarred.I’m currently on accutane which is making me freak out so much worse. I have a probably 1/2-1/4” chunk out of my cheek. It’s not super deep, less than an 1/8” I’d say. I don’t think stitches will help much, there’s nothing to stitch. I haven’t gone to the ER or anything, which i know I probably should have as soon as it happened . I know the dog is up to date on his shots so that’s good at least. I washed it for at least an hour with soap and water before I could stop it bleeding. I currently have it slathered in Neosporin, a CVS brand bleed stop bandage, and then a big 3x4” bandage on it. I’m extremely worried about scarring, and it’s making me so nervous cause I’m on accutane, my fifth month currently.I do have a dermatologist because of the accutane, who I plan on calling this week to see me ASAP. I’m sure my family will freak out cause then someone will know the dog bit me in the face, but I really could give less of a f*ck.I’m wondering if anyone has any help for me in the meantime. I’d really like to prevent scarring, I know not letting it scab over will be a big thing which is why I have it slathered in Neosporin. I think in the morning I’ll have to wash off the bleed stop bandage and slather some more Neosporin on it. If anyone has any advice for this I’d appreciate the help.I’ve always loved dogs so if anyone has any help with that too I’d appreciate it, I’m pretty shaken up. This dog has been around me so many times and never had a problem. I just reached down to pet him on the head, I don’t know what I did to make him jump up and bite me. He’s let me pet him all over and never had a problem. I know there’s really no bad dogs, just bad owners but I’m having a hard time feeling like I can go in the same house as a dog again. It happened less than two hours ago so I’m sure it’ll get better but I’m having a hard time right now.I’d appreciate any help until I can get to the the dermatologist. I know Reddit isn’t where you usually go to make yourself feel better but I’m hoping for a Christmas miracle. Thank you r/skincareaddiction 😢
