Pixel is doing great.His injuries have scabbed up nicely.I gave him a good soak today and picked the remaining shed off his toes.He doesnt mind that but hate me to mess about with his tail.
My only concern now is how these injuries will scar up? Will he have trouble next shed with those areas?

I am glad it's healing up. Keep applying antibiotic to it to keep the scab soft. Once it heals, the scab will fall off. There will be a scar, but it should shed ok once it's healed up. Keep an eye on it though because if the tegu sheds while it is scabbed it can cause some issues.
