Shedding will help. You'll be amazed at the amount of dead stuff that comes of with the shed. Some of the new scales will look pretty raw but as long as they are not open, you're on the way to mending.

Remember, with wounds, reptiles don't generally react as fast as mammals. It takes longer to heal and shedding is part of that process.

Post some pictures if you can. It will not only help us but you will then be able to see the improvement when you doubt there is any.
